'''''Graptophyllum ilicifolium''''', otherwise known as the '''Mount Blackwood Holly''', is a large [[rainforest]] [[shrub]] which grows in [[granitic]] [[soil]]s. It has shiny, dark green leaves which resemble those of the unrelated [[holly]], and grows best in moist, semi-shaded, well-drained, well-mulched soils. The shrub grows to 5 metres in height and has leaves 7.5 to 10 centimetres long which are shiny, noticeably veined, dark green in colour and have a spinous margin. The flowers are red and in short clusters, each about 2 to 2.5 centimetres in length.
