There are no berries on this tree, so I guess it's a male. Or maybe it's just not old enough. The trunk is about 4 inches in diameter, less than twenty feet tall - I do see berries on some trees that size but not many.

I'm sure there's a thornless Ilex opaca selection out there somewhere. I'll probably try some cuttings just for the heck of it, but it would have been nicer if it were female and produced berries. Oh well.
