A Distinct Novelty for Borders 

 and Low Hedges 



"DOX-BARBERRY is the most beautiful little plant imaginable. It 

 •O does not grow tall and spreading, but dwarf and compact, and is 

 especially useful in formal gardens and for low hedges. 



Box-Barberry is perfectly hardy wherever Berberis Thunbergi grows. 

 In summer the foliage is light green, but changes to brilliant red and 

 yellow in autumn. It does not harbor wheat rust. 



Box-Barberry is offered this year for the first time. Box-Barberry has 

 been thoroughly tried over a period of fifteen years before sending out. 

 It is no experiment.
