Do you want seeds? Do you want 6' x 6' full-to-ground B&B specimen?

It makes a difference to where one might be directed.

As far as HSA royalty go, I was kiddingly referring to current officers in the organization - such as myself. Real royalty are those patient plantsmen who would observe and critically evaluate such a plant for 40 years before deeming it worthy of naming and registering. Messrs. Jenkins rate that with me for that plant; I'd find myself bowing in their presence should I ever be worthy enough to meet them.

Conversely, I can be met anytime - seems I'm up through VA and Mid-Atlantic several times a year these days. Speaking of: put Hunt Valley, MD on your calendars for late October 2015. Great annual gathering of holly enthusiasts young and old, large and small - coming to your neck of the woods! Manor View Farm and Foxborough are on the tour itineraries, and many more interesting places/faces/chases...

Meanwhile, I wouldn't limit myself to just one flavor - not when the likes of 'Autumn Glow', 'Cacapon', 'Bright Horizon', 'Chrysocarpa', 'Stoplight', and more could blind you at a glance...
