About:
Toyon (Heteromeles arbutifolia, (pronounced /?h?t?r?'mi?li?z ?r?bju?t?'fo?li?/ more commonly pronounced /h?t?'r?m?li?z/ by California botanists) is a common perennial shrub native to California (down to Baja California).
Toyon is a prominent component of the coastal sage scrub plant community, and is a part of drought-adapted chaparral and mixed oak woodland habitats. It is also known by the common names Christmas berry and California holly.
It is the sole species of Heteromeles, but is closely related to the Asian genus Photinia. It is still included by some botanists, as Toyon was originally described in that genus.
