CALIFORNIA PRIVET. Best of the Hedge Plants. 



Absolutely Free from Insects. 



Remove the UDSigbtly fence. Increase the 

 value of your property by planting a California 

 Privet hedge. It will do almost as v\ell on 

 poor soil as on good, in all situations and un- 

 der all conditions. 



It Is a vigorous grower, with leaves of a good 

 rich shade of green, almost an evergreen, the 

 leaves (in the latitude of Philadelphia! remain- 

 ing on the branches until almost Christmas. 



It can be pruned at any time, and the more ' 

 you prune it the better it'will look and the bet- 

 ter hedge will be formed. 



Insects never attack it, and it never grows : 

 dull, but holds its beautiful green foliage 

 throughout the season. 



It can be planted in a single row, plants 4 to 

 6 ihches apart, but I recommend for a more 

 compact hedge to plant a double row, plants 

 « inches apart, 3 inches oft' the line, in this 

 manner :
