Information

  1. Family: Plants of the genus holly belong to the barberry family.
  2. Construction: They are shrubs, less often trees, with stiff, often thorny branches. The leaves are usually dark green, leathery, with different shapes depending on the species.
  3. Flowers and fruits: The hollyhocks produce small but often beautifully colored flowers. The fruits are usually brightly colored, often red or blue, containing one or more seeds.
  4. Application: Some species of holly are grown as ornamental plants for their attractive leaves, flowers or fruits. Paraguayan holly is grown primarily for its leaves, which are used to prepare mate infusion.
  5. Mate: The infusion of the leaves of the Paraguayan holly is the traditional drink of many South American countries, such as Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay and southern Brazil. Mate is a source of caffeine and is prized for both its flavor and stimulating qualities.
  6. Growing conditions: Sharpshooters grow best in temperate climate zones. They require well-drained soil and a sunny or semi-shaded position.
  7. Health properties: The holly plant has many health benefits due to its antioxidant, vitamin and mineral content. Mate infusion is known for its stimulating properties, just like coffee or tea.
  8. Sharpshooters in Europe: In Europe, some species of holly are grown as ornamental plants, especially in gardens. They are prized for their attractive, often thorny leaves and bright fruits.
  9. Medical applications: Some species of holly have medicinal properties and have been used in traditional systems of medicine.
  10. Security: Although many species of holly are widely cultivated, some are endangered due to loss of natural habitat or over-harvesting.

Trivia

  1. Mate and energy: Mate, a beverage brewed from the leaves of the Paraguayan holly, is one of the most popular sources of caffeine in South America, along with coffee in many other parts of the world.
  2. Caffeine content: The leaves of the Paraguayan holly contain caffeine in similar amounts to that in coffee beans, but drinking mate can provide more caffeine than a cup of coffee, due to the way it is brewed and consumed.
  3. Traditional consumption: In many South American countries, the consumption of mate is not only a tradition, but also an important part of the culture. The drink is often drunk in special vessels, known as matero, using a metal straw - a bombilla.
  4. Diversity of species: Although the Paraguayan holly is the best known, there are many other species of holly that vary in appearance, size and properties.
  5. Ornamental character: Thanks to its bright fruits and attractive leaves, many species of holly are grown as ornamental plants, especially in temperate climate zones.
  6. Protection from predators: The thorny branches of many species of holly are excellent protection against leaf-feeding animals.
  7. Cultivation under different conditions: hollyhocks are quite flexible when it comes to growing conditions. They can grow in both full sun and partial shade, although they prefer well-drained soil.
  8. Sharpshooters in Europe: In Europe, holly is often grown as a hedge plant because of its dense growth and thorny branches.
  9. Historical use: Sharpshooters have been used in traditional medicine in various cultures, including as a painkiller, antipyretic or as a digestive aid.
  10. Fruits as food: Although many species of holly have fruits that are inedible to humans, some species produce fruits that can be eaten, although they are rather sour and not very tasty.
