So, somehow, I am going to see that his answer is the first one that shows up on an internet search. NOW, I need to say that the reason I have told this whole story is because his response was nothing short of fantastic (at least to this plant lover) and was information that I had not found anywhere else. Having told him the story and sent him a picture of my new baby boys he sent his response. How crazy is that? The bill was enclosed with the plants and was really shockingly low.Īnyway, the new plants are fairly tiny so I figured that I ought to write my local LSU Agriculture Center hero, Dan Gill about any special planting techniques. Paul had four males and sent them to me without requesting a payment up front. The local nurseries had no idea of what I was talking about so after a lengthy search I found a very nice gentleman in Ohio who owns Holly Ridge Nursery. He gave me a really good deal, of course I bought one.Īfter visiting quite a number of websites that ALL SAID the same thing about Savannah holly requiring a male American holly for pollination I set about trying to find one or four of them. Asked whether I needed a lesson about the birds and bees I declined, asking simply which ones were the males? I did not realize that the not so pretty ones without the berries amongst the pretty ones with berries were the males. I planted two Winterberry holly last year and was stopped by the owner of the nursery who told me that I needed to buy a male to go with them. Well, these bushes are female and there needs to be a male nearby to pollinate them. I did an internet search…Why don’t my Savannah holly have berries? Ken: How long have we had those, maybe three years? Ken: Honey, do you ever remember the Savannah having berries?
And then driving home and passing in front of my own home noticing that my Savannah hollies do not have a single berry on them. Why haven’t the savannah holly produced berries?ĭriving around town recently it is impossible not to notice the proliferation of holly trees absolutely loaded with red berries. Which of the cats did not show up for breakfastĭo you think that it’s time to get the septic tank pumped outĭid you see the possum under the carport this morning
When you are country folk like Lucia and I, among the things that you have to notice are Why don’t my SAVANNAH HOLLY have berries?
