PLANTS FOR BUILDING "LIVE FENCES" 



The use of vaiious plant materials for the development of green hedges, in preference to wooden 

 fences, has increased in gratifying proportions. 

 The reasons for this are plentiful: It costs little 

 to keep a hedge in good order ; it is easier to plant 

 a hedge than to erect a fence; a fence declines 

 in value from the day it is put up ; a hedge in- 

 creases in value every year! 



We are in a unique position to help you estab- 

 lish "live" fences of several kinds by supplying, 

 at moderate cost, the plants with which to start 

 hedges. At our farms we grow Barbeiry and 

 Privet by the hundreds of thousands. We can 

 supply various sizes at uniformly reasonable 

 prices. Ask for quantity quotations if you need 

 plants by the thousands!
