Anyone got a real source on this? I grew up near a forest that had loads of these, and all the leaves were always spiky. Sure, there were also loads of deer around, but I can't remember having ever seen a non-spiky one like that. Looks more like an odd mutation or so to me.

Cool! So it's European holly that does this. I've never seen a non-prickly American holly leaf, tho
that's because the American is exercising its right to bear arms
Wait are you saying it's because America had/has more bears still which cause the holly to be prickly or because Americans may carry guns‽
the latter; it was a joke about Americans fetishizing weaponry
I have; if you don't prune them the leaves stay straight

*holly switches genes and grows a gun*
Strip leaves again. I dare ya. I double dog dare ya. Strip leaves one more god damned time!
Gotta deck those halls with somethin'
Angery leaves.
This is fascinating, but can you quickly explain the title you gave this? @[email protected]
It’s crazy poetic and I’m wondering if you’re referencing anything?
Awesome read. Thank you.
