It is not listed in Dr Michael Dirr's manual. The arboretum had a tag on the two trees present, labled by the name given. American Holly grows well in most places in southeast Pennsylvania in full sun or part-shade, even in open locations, and I have seen the species doing well in barely acid soils of pH 6.8 - 6.9. I see lots of wild American Hollies growing in the woods of central and southern parts of the Delmarva Peninsula in the acid, sandy soils down there.
