HEDGE PLANTS 



California Privet Hedge. 



Althea. Rose of Sharon.— Double varieties, all colors, 2 V 2 to 3 ft., $10.00 per 100. 



3 to 4 ft., $15.00 per 100. 



Dwarf Boxwood. — (Used chiefly for edging), 4 to G inches, $C00 per 100; $50.00 per 1,000. 



Berberis Thunbergi. — Has become popular in late years for producing low, dense hedges. Its 

 abundant small light green leaves, which turn to rich colors in autumn, and its 

 wealth of scarlet berries, render it very attractive. It is extremely hardy, remains 

 dense and full to the ground and requires but little pruning. 2 years, 12 to 15 in., 

 $3.00 per 100; 12 to 18 in., transp lanted and bushy, $0.00 per 100; 1% to 2 ft., very 

 bushy, $8.00 per 100; 2 to 2y 2 ft., very strong, $12.00 per 100. 



Berberis Lovetti. — Superior to B. Thunbergi by reason of being of more upright habit and a 

 stronger grower. Foliage similar but the berries are smaller, even brighter in color 

 and are produced in even greater profusion. It is destined to be the hedge plant of 

 the future — just as California Privet is of the present. 2 yrs., 12 to 18 in., $5.00 per 

 100; 15 to 20 in., transplanted and bushy, $10.00 per 100; iy 2 to 2 ft., bushy and 

 fine, $15.00 per 100. 



California Privet. (See cut). Introduced as a hedge plant by me in 1873, it has become ex- 

 ceedingly popular and is now more largely employed for a hedge plant than all other 

 plants or shrubs combined. Its rich, dark green, glossy foliage, which remains upon 

 the plant until after midwinter, and its rapid, vigorous growth, added to the fact that 

 it succeeds everywhere, — even in the most trying situations and upon all kinds of 

 soil, — renders it par excellence for hedging. A circular, "How to Plant and Care For 

 a California Privet Hedge," will be mailed free upon request.

Dwarf Chinese Privetf L. Ibota nana). — An exceedingly useful and very valuable plant for 

 forming low hedges or for edging; producing leaves which are more dense and richer 

 in color than Dwarf Box. By its use a finished effect is obtained the first season.

Ilex crenata. Japanese Holly. — For producing a low dense, evergreen hedge this is about per- 

 fect. It is being largely used by landscape gardeners. Fine plants, 12 to 15 in., 

 $25.00 per 100. 



Rosa rueosa. Japanese Rose. — Rapidly growing in favor for hedging purposes. The richness 

 of it s foliage, its showy flowers and attractive fruit or "hips," unite in rendering it 

 desirable. It is also very hardy and its foliage is always bright, attractive and free 

 from insect attack. Strong transp^nted two years old, $10.00 per 100.
