please let me know by direct Email.

Where in general do you live? Does it have to be mail order?
"Schillings" is pretty hardy I thought.

If anyone knows a source for this plant-Ilex vomatoria
"Schillings"
please let me know by direct Email. It could be raw stock or
semi-styled-in
other words doesnt have to be from a "bonsai" supplier.
Thanks

Check local nurseries -- even Home Depot. I.v. 'S' is one of the
most common nursery plants in this area, at least.

You will get a MUCH larger, probably healthier, tree from a local
nursery than you can by mail order; MUCH less through-the-mail
trauma. A one-gallon plant by mail will be about half the size
of a one-gallon plant in a local nursery. And, at the nursery,
you probably can find five-gallon plants for the same price (plus
shipping) as a one-gallon plant via mail or UPS.

If there are no "local" nurseries, a 50-mile drive would still be
more advantageous.

Sorry to our nursery folks out there . . .
