The first two pics are of the same plant. I’ve had it for two years and until 4 months ago when I re-located it, it only had one leaf.
The third pic is a flowering plant that was mostly dead and unlabeled at Lowe’s. Any help appreciated.

Comments (3)My suggestion is to simply stand back and wait to see what the hollies may do on their own. Whatever you do, DON'T fertilize. If they've been chopped back repeatedly, that might pose a problem. But hollies are a plant that can undergo a rejuvenation pruning....all the way to the ground....and come back better than ever. For better advice, we need to know your general location and those pictures of the hollies would be great. I need to be able to ID the hollies in order to be able to forecast their future growth....See MoreHelp identifying a couple plants
