Hedge Plants 



HEDGES OF CALIFORI^IA PRIVET 



ALTHEA. Rose of Sharon.— Double varieties, 

 all colors. 2 to 3 feet, 100, $10.00; 3 to 4 feet, 

 100, §15.00. 



BERBERIS THUNBERGI.— Has become popu- 

 lar for producing low 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 and 

 requires but little pruning. Transplanted, 12 to 

 18 inches. 86.50 per 100: 1% to 2 feet. $9.00 per 

 100. 



CALIFORNIA PRIVET. (See cut.)— Introduced 

 as a hedge plant by me in 1873. It has become 

 exceedingly popular and is now more largely em- 

 ployed for hedge planting than all other plants 

 or shrubs combined. Its rich, dark green, glossy 

 foliage, which remains upon the plant until after 

 paid-winter, and its rapid, vigorous growth, added 

 to the fact that it succeeds everywhere, render 

 it par excellence for hedging. A leaflet on "How 

 to Plant and Care for a Privet Hedge," will be 

 mailed free upon request.

You will be glad to know that every plant of the 

 Barberry Hedge we got of you last autumn lived 

 through the coldest winter I have ever known in 

 Maryland. It was planted in a very exposed 

 northwestern situation — in fact, everything we 

 have gotten from vou has done well.

AMOOR PRIVET.— A superior hedge plant and 

 rapidly gi-owiug in public favor. It is almost 

 evergreen, and the true variety is much hardier 

 than the California Privet. It forms a very com- 

 pact hedge and by many is regarded as even 

 prettier than the California Privet. It also grows 

 well under and in the shade of trees — the other 

 does not. The plants offered were cut back at 

 one year and are very bushy. 



Two years, 1% to 2 feet, 100. 83.50: 1.000, 

 $30.00. 



Two vears. 2 to 3 feet. 100. 84.00: 1.000. $35.00. 

 Heavy, 3 to 4 feet, 100, 86.00. 



ROSA RUGOSA.— The rich green of its 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 and at- 

 tractive. 



Transplanted. 12 to 18 inches, 100, 810.00. 

 Transplanted, ly, to 2 feet, 100, 812.00.
