Buford Holly from Berries?

Russ_Bolivia
18 years ago

I hate to show my ignorance: but can you grow Buford Holly plants from the berries?

I have a small farm that needs a hurricane resistance screen from a highway. I have used Leland Cypress trees, but they tend to blow over during high winds and wet conditions. I have two large Buford Hollies now that seem to do very well during hurricanes. They are about 20 foot tall and donÂt seem to suffer any damages during high winds and wet conditions.

Can I propagate Buford Hollies from the berries and if so how is it done?
