Tree identification

Question

I cannot figure out what kind of tree this is. I live in South Florida and this looks like an oak tree but it has toothed leaves and just today I noticed green berries growing in clusters. The leaf reminds me of a holly leaf but this grows like an oak. Thanks.

Answer 1

I believe you are correct in recognizing a holly. I think you have American holly (Ilex opaca) a Forida native. Yes it is a tree form, so may appear to grow like an oak.
