The blue fruits on this tree are actually fleshy cones. Often used as a screen by planting in one or two fairly dense rows. Also useful as a background tree.  Can be a specimen tree.

Groundcover for dry sites. Clonal (forms small clumps of stems).It has deep red foliage in fall.

This forms clumps but does not form large clones, which means it will not take over a garden. Wildflower garden especially toward the back where height won't be an issue.

This naturally occurring hybrid has become a landscaping favorite. Ilex x attenuata is a natural hybrid originally found growing in the wild in Florida.    It is a cross between I. cassine (dahoon) and I. opaca (American holly).  To the best of our knowledge, this holly was documented once in 1924, in Walton County.  It may no longer occur in nature. Specimen plant. Plant where its shiny green foliage and bright red fruits can be seen.
