CALIFORNIA 

 PRIVET 



The One Best Hedge Plant, 

 Combining Beauty. Hardi- 

 ness and Efficiency. 



Our Privet has been special- 

 ly prepared for ti-ansplanting 

 this fall, and if set out now 

 will break into leaf early next 

 spring and soon form a splen- 

 did hedge. 



CALIFORNIA Privet 

 has long been recog"- 

 nized as the one very- 

 best plant for Hedge 

 purposes, as it is re- 

 markable for its beautiful, 

 dark-green, glossy foliage, 

 its quick, strong and symmet- 

 rical growth, its freedom 

 from insects and scale, and 

 its ability to withstand prun- 

 ing and trimming into any 

 desired shape. 



For many years we have 

 made a specialty of growing 

 California Privet for Hedges, 

 and our stock cannot be sur- 

 passed anywhere. It is 

 strong, thrifty and in the 

 best of shape for transplant- 

 ing. We have it in all sizes, 

 form one-year-old plants to 

 large, vigorous bushes which 

 can be used with telling ef- 

 fect in the formation of an 

 immediate hedge. These large plants are the most economical to buy, for with them 

 the years of tedious waiting for the hedge to grow will be avoided. 



Our California Privet is not grown by the usual nurseryman's method, but is as 

 carefully propagated as other higher-priced shrubs. By frequent transplanting the 

 plants are kept bushy to the ground, and will soon form a splendid hedge. T\'e have 

 an immense surplus stock, and have made the prices exceedingly low. One of the 

 best bargains of the year awaits you.
