Great video! The low dead branches on the side of the trees in the US is called squaw wood. It is excellent kindling wood because of its low moisture, even in the rain. Used alone , it can easily be broken off to make a smokeless fire.

Your Holly grove is beautiful and not invasive at all. Ben ("Ein Mann im Wald") made a great video about this wonderful and unfortunately endagered European plant. Fun fact: Holly not only gave its name to the famous Hollywood (LA), but also made an appearance in Middle-Earth: the lost Elf realm of Eregion at the west gate of Moria is named after the Holly trees growing there, humans called it Hollin.

This is very helpful! Personally, I really enjoy teaching videos like this that show the WORST ways to use a resource, with the ways to try to use the resource get more and more successful until you find the very best method. Too many times, people set themselves up for the best success off camera without showing the things that do not work as well. Felix, you made the "mistakes" for us right on camera, which makes your successes much more trustworthy. This way, success does not feel like a trick, but the result of good old Trial and Error. Thank you very much for doing the trials for us and still showing them, since even the methods that do not ignite with a fire starter rod are still very useful once you have an open flame. I am happy to have found and subscribed to your channel! Enjoy your day! :)

Answer: "Re-Pete" You'll get it. Repetition alway pounds it into our heads! 😂😂😂 Great video. Holly must have a higher oil content in its bark. Have you tried willow yet or do you have that over there? In North America, we do have beech trees and cottonwood and aspen may work the same. Cool!

I've started collecting bark from dead/fallen Prunus avium trees after watching your first video, and boy can you collect tons of it with that method. Even if the trunk has started to rot, it's quite easy to brush off the moist rotten residue from the bark, which burns as well as birch bark. And it's quite easy to identify. As Holly is also a very easy tree to identify (ouch!) and tends to grow in thick and dense plots (ouch! ouch!), this is also an extremely interesting bark to add to the "let's start a fire with it" list 😂

Je vais vite essayer. Concernant ton arbre inconnu, je pencherais pour un saule marsault ( si tu as de l'humidité à proximité ou en sous-sol ) sinon un peuplier tremble / blanc. A 17:55 je note des lenticelles losanges en haut à gauches... les saules et les peupliers sont les seuls à en posséder chez-nous ( en Suisse ). Et le coté "vert" de l'écorce, ainsi que les veines verticales de l'écorce corroborent également cette hypothèse.

Holly has much cultural resonance in the English-speaking world. Holly branches are one of the most traditional Christmas decorations, and the folk carol “The Holly And The Ivy” (which is mostly about holly, not ivy) is very popular. I knew a girl named Holly, but she didn’t like the name, so she called herself Ilex, which is Latin for Holly. As a boy, I listened to a music group, The Hollies. They weed named for Buddy Holly, a singer and songwriter from Lubbock, Texas, whose band was named The Crickets. Holly has an interesting white wood, but it isn’t used much for construction or furniture because most of the trees are too small to make into good boards.

There are many holly (Ilex) trees native to roughly the eastern half of the contiguous United States. An especially interesting species, native to my state (among others) is Yaupon Holly, Ilex vomitoria. Although the species name, vomitoria, doesn’t sound promising, it is possible to make a tea from Yaupon Holly leaves that contains caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline, a similar profile to coffee, chocolate, and the South American plant Yerba Mate (Yerba Mate is another Ilex species). Yaupon Holly has bright red berries. I think the berries are inedible for people, but many birds love eating them, including Cedar Waxwings, one of my favorite bird species. An advantage of holly bark as tinder is that holly trees tend to keep their leaves in winter (at least, in Texas they do), so they are easy to identify even when other trees are bare.
