Plants Suitable for Hedges— High or Low 



LIGUSTRUM (The Privets) 

 A family of plants which, due to their rapid growth and ornamental 

 foliage, are ideally adapted to forming dense hedges. All varieties of Privet 

 stand shearing well and are readily trained to various shapes. For a hedge, 

 plant in single row eight inches apart. 



OVALIFOLIUM (California Privet) 



The popular hedge plant with glossy, deep green leaves. In- 

 troduced by us as a hedge plant in the early seventies and 

 now more largely planted for ornamental hedges than any 

 other shrub. Its strong, quick, upright growth adapts it 

 singularly well for being grown as a barrier or to hide un- 

 sightly objects.

IBOLIUM PRIVET (New) 



A cross between California Privet and Ibota, 

 having the attractiveness of California Privet and 

 the hardiness of Ibota. Very desirable for North- 

 ern climates, where it has stood zero temperatures 

 without injury. With us, it is almost an ever- 

 green, retaining its foliage until after Christmas.

REGEL'S PRIVET 

 Ligustrum Regelianum — A very strong, vigorous- 

 ly growing shrub with white flowers, followed by 

 black berries. Equally attractive in either hedge 

 form or as specimen shrub, forming dense, sym- 

 metrical bushes. 18 to 24 in., each, 25c; dozen, 

 ^2.50; 100, ^15.00. 2 to 3 ft., each, 35c; dozen, 

 ^3.50; 100, ^25.00. 3 to 4 ft., each, 50c; dozen, 

 ^5.00; 100, ^35.00. 



HARDY NORTH AMOOR PRIVET 

 Ligustrum Amurense — Has olive-green foliage, 

 and forms a dense and handsome hedge. Suc- 

 ceeds in the shade of overhanging trees much 

 better than does California Privet. Has numer- 

 ous panicles of white flowers during June; in 

 the autumn the branches are loaded with con- 

 spicuous, steel-blue berries. Similar to L. Ibota, 

 but the hardiest of all Privets.
