Holly bush with berries is a male. My male holly bush doesn't keep it's berries year round, at least mine doesn't - I live in southern Ontario. I also have a female holly bush and in the Spring is has little buds of flowers. At the moment my male holly bush has little white flowers which will eventually turn into berries.
Until wildlife or birds eat them. Or until they become too ripe and fall off.
