tie spraying to do. One of the hedges 

 here is no less than fifty feet high, but 

 the general run is eight to ten feet high, 

 and nearly as much in diameter, receiv- 

 ing one good yearly trimming. Where a 

 high hedge for a windbreak is wanted, 

 the Norway spruce is unexcelled 



Thuya occidentalis, American arbor- 

 vitsB, is a well known hedge plant which 

 can be kept moderately low and dense by 

 close trimming, or can be allowed to 



reach large dimensions. The larger sized 

 plants can be allowed more space in the 

 rows than the smaller sizes. Sometimes 

 a heavy snow will flatten down this ever- 

 green, especially when in a young state, 

 but it invariably straightens up again. 



Tsuga Canadensis, the well known 

 hemlock spruce, makes an admirable 

 hedge plant. It is more graceful than 

 the Norway spruce and stands close 

 shearing. While not equal to the 



English yew, Taxus baccata, as a hedge 

 plant, it is the best we have of a some- 

 what similar character, hardy in our 

 coldest northern states. Plants of hem- 

 lock spruce which have had some shear- 

 ing in tlie nursery make the best hedge 

 plants. 



For a low hedge there is nothing to 

 beat Bu'xus sempervirens, dwarf box. 

 This is a feature in thousands of Euro- 

 pean gardens and in many old colonial
