re: Full sized Eagleston Holly tree

For this particular application I am just playing one, so not a hedge.
Planting it as a focal point tree somewhat close to my house and was trying to get an eye on a full grown one instead of the fairly small hedge style that they're used for most.
I may get some for the "hedge" purpose in my backyard but pictures of that are easy to find.

Full sized Eagleston Holly tree

Does anyone have any full grown eagleston holly trees in their landscaping or on their property?
Anyone have any pictures of full grown eagleston hollys in their landscaping or around their house?
I'm trying to decide if I want one in a particular area but as far as I can find there are no pictures of full grown ones, at least not in an actual landscape or around a real home that shows them to scale. All I can find is stock pictures of them fairly small.

Think Apple only one who could have pulled off live action.
Hope I’m wrong of course.

Ironic coming from someone with State Farm, who along with Allstate are notoriously awful dealing with for claims.

Yes

We are currently insured with State Farm through a local State Farm agent.
Wouldn't do that, get an independent agent that can shop you through various companies every renewal.

Wife says we pay more in insurance because of it. Not sure if she’s right about that.
She's not

We are getting ready to move and this may be a good time to forego an agent.
It's not, i guess unless you're well versed in insurance all all of the variables and endorsements. As stated above, you aren't paying more for having an agent, just get an independent one that can shop you and not one thats locked into to one carrier that literally cant shop you.

re: "Trophy Rooms"

My room is a separate "seating area" room with a built in wet bar and is directly off of and visible from my living room.

Going for a similar look, was thinking black walls as well.
My room is 16 X 14, so not huge but not small either. Have 2 ceiling heights one about 10 and the other about 14 so they're pretty high.
Was thinking a big leather couch similar to those chairs and then one or 2 "accent chairs" that are a little different with like a cool print or maybe even like a velvet purple/blue/green.

"Trophy Rooms"
Posted by DukeSilver on 2/10/26 at 10:17 am
Anyone have any trophy/taxidermy rooms or offices they'd like to share?
I'm finally getting my Africa mounts in the next month or so (they were delayed significantly due to the turmoil that was going in in SA) and am finally going to consolidate my mounts in to one room and make it a trophy/cigar/bourbon room.
Just looking for some ideas on wall colors, furniture, other items you have in the room, etc.

With the Cosomere to AppleTV news guess it's time to start on it, guess I've been putting it off due to its length but it's time.
