Is this a type of Holly

I found this on hike on a ridge in southeast Tennessee

 

Common Spicebush (Lindera benzoin) perhaps?

Sure looks like it and definitely the right environment..., I really didn't expect this one to be edible. Thank you very much.

 

I wouldn't consider it edible except to birds and butterflies.

I wouldn't consider it to be a spicebush. I would consider it to be a holly, looks every bit like one of the eastern North American deciduous species.

 

Agree it looks rather like one of the deciduous hollies, but aren't the fruit peduncles a bit long for that? Hollies at least generally have very short fruit peduncles; that's what stopped me from saying a holly last night.

 

Thanks guys, it was the berries that made me think it was a Holly but the leaves threw me off a bit.

 

It is true that the long stalks might be a problem. Otherwise...
