I have two hollies, a China Boy and China Girl, that are divesting
themselves of their foliage and berries. The leaves have also been
yellowing. They're in mostly shade and are getting watered regularly.
Has anyone had this problem?

Hollies do that. There's nothing wrong. Just get the rake back out.

I had two huge hollies planted about the time Noah found dry land. A
goodly portion of their leaves would turn yellow and puny and drop
leaving a prickly mess on the grass in the spring but the tress would
perk right back up.

Semideciduous oak trees ("live oaks") will do the same thing. If I
recall correctly, lagustrum and camelia will also do the same.

I had two azaleas that insisted on blooming in November. And you
thought cats were hard to understand!
