Harrison-Crown Hedge Plants for Utility and Beauty 



F 



Many people do not realize 

 the value of an attractive hedge 

 and how it will increase the 

 worth of their grounds. A 

 hedge of any of the selected 

 plants listed here will add dol- 

 lars to the value of your home 

 and make its appearance more 

 charming. 



CALIFORNIA 

 PRIVET 



This is the universal hedge 

 in the East, a fact proving that 

 Privet has greater raerit under 

 ordinary conditions for this 

 purpose, than any other plant. 

 For live fences at village, town 

 and country homes it is the 

 very best of all materials. On 

 public grounds of all kinds. In 

 parks and cemeteries, along 

 roads and paths, on factory 

 grounds, and on nev>rly sub- 

 divided areas near towns, noth- 

 ing else can be used in its place, and in this 

 place it is indispensable. It is the best of all 

 hardy hedge plants. Can be easily kept at 

 any height desired; has glossy, deep green 

 leaves, and holds them until late fall. Its 

 strong, quick, upright growth makes it useful 

 for screening out unsightly objects.

RED LEAVED BARBERRY 



(Berberis thunbergi atropurpurea) 



A highly important introduction among shrubs, giving us 

 for the first time a practical easily grown shrub of medium 

 height, with good, distinctly red foliage. This must prove 

 a boon to all types of landscaping, where studied contrasts 

 are to be worked out with the shrub foliage depended on 

 for colors. Red Leaved Barberry is an exact reproduction 

 of the Japanese variety in every way — habit, leaf-forma- 

 tion and fruiting, but — whereas the original is a deep green 

 from spring until fall, this variety starts off in its first 

 foliage a warm bronzy red; the heat of summer intensifying 

 its red brilliancy; autumn adding other tints to its rich- 

 ness. The abundant scarlet berries persist throughout the 

 winter along the spiny twigs. A sunny exposure is neces- 

 sary to bring out and retain its full red color.

JAPANESE BARBERRY 



(Berberis thunbergi) 



For a low hedge Japanese Barberry stands at 

 the head of the list. The leaves are small, 

 light green, and toward fall turn to various 

 colors which produce a very pleasing aspect. 

 In fall this handsome plant bears a profusion 

 of bright red berries which remain through 

 the winter. This Barbery is without doubt 

 one of the best hedge plants and one that 

 requires no attention, as it can be pruned or 

 not at the owner's discretion. Barberry is ab- 

 solutely hardy. You need not fear that it will 

 winter-kill at all. It will stand trimming, but 

 does not need it even for wonderfully fine 

 hedges, unless your space is very small. Along 

 a walk, driveway, or even as a boundary 

 hedge Barberry can be used to great ad- 

 vantage, whether you trim it or permit it to 

 grow as nature intended. On account of the 

 dense and horizontal -growing branches, the 

 plants make a thick hedge.
