Hedges of Beauty and UtiKty 



ARTISTIC appreciation and economic neces- 

 , sity have swung the pendulum of public 

 approval again to the living, growing 

 hedge, and we find them much preferred to 

 the cold, austere brick walls or iron fences of 

 past years. Not only do they provide privacy, 

 and beauty as well, but they also form a back- 

 ground or embellishment for practically any 

 type of landscaping. 



GLOBE PRIVET — Showing Thick, Healthy Growth 



California Privet, first brought into prom- 

 inence as a hedge plant by the founder of this 

 Nursery, is undoubtedly the finest and most 

 popular of all varieties. 



We specialize in the production of Privet and Barberry, growing hundreds of thou- 

 sands of these popular plants in various sizes. For landscape architects and others re- 

 quiring large quantities we will be pleased to make special quotations. 



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 orna- 

 mental hedges than any other shrub. Its strong, 

 quick, upright growth adapts it singularly well 

 for being grown as a barrier or to hide unsight- 

 ly objects.
