Bark of a Holly tree. Native to North America the East Palatka Holly was found growing near Palatka Florida and is cultivated for its consistent growth habit and abundance of bright red berries on this female only Holly tree.
– Although this tree is prized for its abundant berries, the East Palatka Holly’s foliage is note worthy in and of itself. The light green leaves add a sense of freshness to the landscape, like the color of grass after a good hard rain.
– Bark of the East Palatka Holly is a light pale often mottled whitish grey.
– Although these trees are most often seen sheared and shaped heavily when planted in the landscape, they have a certain grace to them when allowed to grow in their natural form and not sheared back annually. The tree will open up in the center to expose branches and have a beautiful almost weeping habit with the heavily laden branches drooping downward full of berries each winter season.
