USEFUL ORNAMENTAL HEDGES 
AND HARDY BORDERING PLANTS 
THE NEW BOX-BARBERRY 
An exquisite, new, perfectly hardy edging for formal beds. Makes 
shapely, upright plants, 30 inches high, when fully matured, but can 
be kept 6 inches high by trimming. Our stock is grown from cut- 
tings made from the original plant. 
This new dwarf Barberry comes to fill a long-felt need for an 
edging plant that is dwarf in growth, free from all diseases and 
insect pests, and absolutely hardy everywhere in the United States. 
The foliage is small and dainty. The young leaves are a beautiful 
emerald-green in the spring, changing to a pleasing, soft green 
during the summer and bright red in the fall. In many parts of 
this country, garden-beds had to be bordered annually or not at 
all, as there was no perfectly hardy edging plant to use, but now 
no garden need be incomplete on this account. 
Border your rose-beds, also your perennials and annuals, with 
this neat, upright, hardy, little shrub. Our illustration shows how 
neat a garden can be. Plant 4 inches apart for a low border and 
keep the plants pruned to whatever height you want. They can 
be trimmed at any time without injury. The one-year size is 
best for using in garden borders. Price, I-yr. size, $3 for 10, 
postpaid; $20 per 100, $175 per I, go 0. 2-yr. size, 75 cts. each,

I am pleased with the appearance of the Box-Barberry and intend to order

I think when I get enough to border the entire rose-bed, that the effect
