Holly, ilex aquifolium (aquifoli-
aceae), is a familiar decorative
green used during winter holi-
days. The evergreen mountain
holly grows wild in Europe and
the United States. Popularity
has led to its now widespread
cultivation.
The use of holly in the home
can be traced back to the Druids
in England and the festival of
Saturnalia observed by the Ro-
mans, Holly was a sacred herb
for the Druids. They brought
boughs of the plant into their
homes during winter to provide
a safe and warm place for the
"little people" and woodland
spirits who were believed to live
in the branches. While in Rome,
presents were sent and ex-
changed among the .people with
holly branches attached. This
midwinter celebration, also
known as the Yule, occurs on
the shortest day of the year
when the Sun moves into zero
degrees Capricorn.
From these beginning uses of
holly, the plant became known
as an herb of protection. Planted
around the home it guards
against lightening, poison and
evil spirits. It Is used in Yule
decorations in the home to pro-
mote good luck and is carried or
worn for the same reason
pecially by men. as holly
