Wreath's crimson dots
Holly berries are the bright red fruit of the holly plant, familiar from Christmas decorations where they contrast with the plant's dark, spiny leaves.
Though attractive, holly berries are toxic to humans and pets if eaten in quantity.
The berries appear only on female holly plants.
