This is a great time of the year to visit Courtyard Garden 21 on the Medford Campus. Known as the Holly Court, this garden is filled with many examples of different species of Holly trees and shrubs. The Ilex, or holly genus, includes evergreen and deciduous trees, as well as shrubs. The fruit of the Ilex, often referred to as berries, range in color from red to brown and yellow. The fruit ripens in the winter and provides winter color interest as well as a feast for the birds. This Court is a treat to enjoy at this time of the year.
