GENERAL LANDSCAPE PLANTING 



1. PLANTS FOR HEDGES 



A. (As barriers). These should consist of shrubs 

 which are very close growing and compact in habit. Many 

 among them are thorny in character. They are excellent 

 as barriers for two reasons; either because of the thorny 

 character which makes passage undesirable, or because 

 of the extremely close habit of growth, which makes the 

 hedge solid in character.
