C. agricultural experiment sta tion have been enlarged Into a separate horticultural project In an attempt to further the develop ment oi tnis increasingly impor tant specialty crop. One of the pioneer Institutions In holly research, the station has conducted studies on this specialty crop for the past 15 years as part of the over-all nursery crop proj ect The growth of the Industry into an orchard tree crop in its own right and the pressing need for more Information on produc tion practices prompted the es tablishment of the separate pro gram. A. N. Roberts, associate horticulturist. Is project leader. Last year, Oregon produced nearly two-thirds of the nation's English holly, which Is recog nized as the top quality type in the trade. There are approximate ly 1100 acres of holly planted in the state with some 400 acres in production. The estimated return to Oregon growers last year was more than $200,000. Future Prospects Bright Prospects for future develop ment are bright, Roberts points out. The cool, moist climate of the Northwest Is ideally suited to the production of ton aualitv hollv and Improved handling and storage techniques permit marketing in distant eastern ana southern points. Past work at the station has concentrated on developing propa gation techniques and on finding the best handling and storage practices. A spectacular discovery was that exposure of untreated holly to the gas given off by ripen ing fruit caused Its leaves to drop off. Objectives of the new project center around finding the best varieties for commercial produc tion, determining the best cutting and pruning practices, checking pollination needs and methods, and continuing studies on han dling and storage. More than 60 varitios have been gathered by the project workers and planted at the station hortlcul ure farm as part of the testing an " selection program, and more are added each year. Studies on pruning and cutting practices will be conducted In cooperation with holly growers.
