The only thing I watch for on mine is when you get an ice storm and it builds up on the plant. Since they're green all winter, they have a tendency to collect more ice then a bare bush and it starts pulling the branches down. I just kick them with the side of my boot to brake icicles off.

Holly is considered a noxious weed in this area. I had to use the chain saw to cut down a large holly bush on my property. They do grow quickly.

thanks folks. ive alwyas loved the look of holy, especially int he winter when the snow is on it. i think it would be a great way to add some color to my fron porch during the winter time.
Why is that?
It can't be as bad as Giant Hogweed which has been around our area and is highly phototoxic.
right, thanks. was figuring on getting either 2 or 4 plants

That's why I prune mine with a chain saw. Lord, I hate those things.
