Question
I think this could be Ilex glabra. What do you think? It is growing in a pine forest in Cutler Park in Dedham along the Charles River. I only took one photo, but I could go back and get more detail if it would help. Thanks.
Answer
Dear stephradner, I can't see the details I need to in the image to positively identify it. However, I can state this is not Ilex glabra, that species has a very different leaf blade outline and margin. If you can provide a more close-up image, I can identify this plant for you. Feel free to post here or email to ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org. Best wishes.
