    I purchased six 3- gallon size holly bushes. How far apart should the bushes be planted?

    I'm a newly married...dont know anything about plants and I bought six 3-gallon size of Blue Boy Combo Holly. What am I supposed to do? I didnt know there is such thing as Boy and Girl Holly. Do I have to buy the Girl Holly to get berries?

    I have a Holly bush I bought a few years back. I didn't know that we need boy and girl plant to have berries. So, now I have purchased one of each. How far apart can they be for them to bloom? My first one, Not sure if it's a boy or girl, is a good 15 feet from where I plan to put the other two. Will this be to far? Or can I expect my first one to bloom sometime?
