Carolina Hemlock, ten years planted — one of the best of all hedges 



Wi:uii:i,A Eva Rathkk. A popular jiarden shrub, hardy, w itli clean, rather 

 coarse foliajie and attractive dark red flowers. Tliis shrulj grows well and 

 would seem promising for use as a garden hedge, hut this promise has not 

 yet been fulfilled in the college plantings. Plants set in hedge rows in 19'2fi 

 have not made sufficiently strong and even growth to form a good hedge; but 

 the\' deserve a more extended trial.
