| Small trees resistant to cotton root rot include Jerusalem thorn, yaupon and wild olive. |
| Southerners could, for example, plant a mass of vigorous full-sized yaupon hollies next to the back door, and a cluster of dwarf yaupons at the yard's far edge. |
| Native plants, like wax myrtle varieties of yaupon hollies to name a few, are popular plants for southern gardens. |
| The yaupon is a shrubby tree of spreading habit, with very small, oval, evergreen leaves and red berries. |
| The understory is dominated by yaupon holly, American beautyberry, and farkleberry. |
| The tree is known locally as yaupon, dahoon, dahoon holly, and Henderson wood. |
