You should probably ask your teacher if you need to know what they are asking for since it doesn't specify. If it were my project I would assume that they are asking for when the flower is in bloom.

Holly in Full Bloom


Until this year I'd never even noticed that Holly trees bloom, in hind-sight this should always have been obvious, where else do the lovely red berries come from!? I think I can be forgiven for missing them though, they really are very small! I shot this photo in the Junior Gardens on the St. Patrick's College campus in Maynooth, Ireland.

This shot featured on my blog as Photo of the Week 73 - Holly in Bloom.
