A Witch's Garden: Holly
Disclaimer
This is NOT a page about Wiccans or neo-pagans, and I do not advocate the belief that Wiccans are Satan-worshippers and/or baby-killers. I am well aware that they are not. This is a starting point for historical research into the great witch craze of 1100-1700 AD. And please, don't ask me for spells.
Holly
As a Ward
Holly was believed to be antagonistic to witches. "In its name they see but another form of the word 'holy,' and its thorny foliage and blood-red berries are suggestive of the most Christian associations (Thiselton-Dyer 66).
