USEFUL ORNAMENTAL HEDGES 



AND HARDY BORDERING PLANTS 



THE NEW BOX-BARBERRY 



HARDY ANYWHERE IN U. S. A. 



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 rich 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. It does not injure the plants to trim them 

 at any season and trimming makes them grow more bushy.
