Hedge of California Pr.vet. 



HEDGE PLANTS. 



CAI^IFORNIA PRIVET. 



0f all ornamental hedge plants this is the most popular, and 

 raore of it is planted than all others combined. Its foliage is a 

 rich dark green, and is nearly evergreen, remaining on the 

 plant until midwinter. It is of free growth, and succeeds under 

 the most adverse conditions, such as under dense shade of trees, 

 where other plants would not exist. 



The most advantageous manner of planting is in double rows, 

 the two rows being about 8 inches apart. The two smaller 

 sizes of plants here offered should be set 10 to 12 inches apart 

 in the row — alternating the plants — while the larger sizes may 

 be set from 12 to 15 inches apart. In order to secure a dense 

 kedge from the base up, the plants should be severely pruned 

 the first two seasons.

OSAGK ORANGE. 



This is still used extensively on farms and along highways, 

 but is seldom used in private gardens. It makes a strong and 

 defensive hedge that will turn cattle; should be planted in 

 double rows 6 to 9 inches apart in the row. Strong 2-year-old 

 plants, $1.00 per 100; $7.50 per 1000. 



BERBERIS THUNBERGII. 



Where a low, dwarf, deciduous hedge is wanted nothing- 

 equals this beautiful Barberry. It is of spreading habit, grow- 

 ing extremely thick right from the base, and requires but little 

 pruning to keep it in shape. The leaves are small, light green, 

 and towards fall assume rich, brilliant colors, the fruit or 

 berries becoming scarlet. Strong, bushy plants, 18 inches high, 

 $10.00 per 100; $90.00 per 1000. 



ROSA RUGOSA (Ramanas Rose). 



Both the red and white-flowering form of these beautiful 

 Roses are fast becoming popular as hedge plants, their bright 

 glossy foliage, which appears to be insect-proof, together with 

 the showy, large single flowers, which are followed by bright 

 red fruits, make them particularly desirable plants for the pur- 

 pose. Strong 2-year-old plants, $25. 00 per 100. 



BOXIVOOD EDGING. 



Niee bushy plants, 4 to 6 inches high, f 1 00 per doz.; $6.00 

 per 100; $50.00 per 1000. 



AEXHEA 'Rose of Sharon).

 $12.00 per 100.
