HEDGE 

 PLANTS 



PRIVET (Ligustrum) 



Amur River North Privet (L. amurense). 15 

 ft. Big, handsome foliage of deepest olive- 

 green, followed by fragrant white flower 

 clusters. Best hedge plant, by far, for 

 severe climates.

California Privet (L. ovalifolium). 10 to 12 

 ft. Introduced by our nursery as a hedge 

 plant in the early seventies, this sturdy 

 shrub with its glossy green leaves is now 

 more popular for ornamental hedges than 

 is any other sort. Its strong, quick, up- 

 right growth adapts it singularly well 

 for being grown as a barrier or to hide 

 unsightly objects. Here at Little Silver, 

 N. J., California Privet is very nearly 

 evergreen. Sturdy, 2-year-old plants.

Ibolium Privet (L. ibolium). 10 ft. A cross 

 between California and Ibota Privet, with 

 the beauty of the former and the hardi- 

 ness of the latter. Has withstood zero 

 temperatures without injury, and its semi- 

 evergreen foliage makes it an attractive 

 all-round hedge plant.

Thompson's Privet ( L. Thompson). 12 to 15 

 ft. A greatly improved form of the popu- 

 lar Amur River North Privet, with all of 

 its parent's hardiness and much greater 

 beauty. Doz. 100 1000

IBOLIUM PRIVET— SEMI-EVERGRZEN HEDGE 



BARBERRIES are Extremely Hardy 



Japanese Barberry (B. thunbergi). 3 to 4 



ft. Ideal and most popular for a low, 

 dense hedge, with slender arching 

 branches, graceful, yet compact. Takes on 

 a rich autumnal shade of red and car- 

 ries a wealth of beautiful scarlet berries 

 throughout the winter. Most hardy, and 

 requires little pruning. For a hedge, set 

 12 inches apart. The following prices

Red Japanese Barberry (B. thunbergi atro- 

 purpurea). 5 to 6 ft. Red-foliaged type of 

 the popular Japanese Barberry, with rich 

 red foliage, valuable for color in the 

 border and beautiful as a hedge plant. 

 The color becomes more intense in sum- 

 mer, and the dense twigs take on a mass 

 of scarlet berries in the fall. An invalu- 

 able shrub, which should be planted in 

 full sunlight for best results.

Truehedge (B. thunbergi erecta). (U. S. 

 Plant Patent No. 110.) 3 to 4 ft. This won- 

 derful hedge plant has a smaller and 

 more refined leaf than has the more 

 familiar Japanese Barberry. It is infinitely 

 more compact and leafy than the older 

 sort, and lends itself willingly to formal 

 shearing, of which one treatment will be 

 sufficient, since the plant itself is quite 

 formal in appearance. It, too, is much 

 more erect in growth than its parent.
