Thunberg's Barberry (Berberis ThunbergU) 



Beautiful 



the year 



round 



If you want a hedge that will give your grounds a really natural 

 effect, plant Thunberg's Barberry. If allowed to grow without 

 pruning or training in any way, it will form a compact mass so 

 dense that even a cat can't get through it. 



For a low hedge Thunberg's Barberry stands at the head 

 of the list. The leaves are small, light green, and toward fall 

 turn to various colors which produce a very pleasing aspect. In fall this hand- 

 some plant bears a profusion of bright red berries which remain through the 

 winter. This Barberry is without doubt one of the best hedge plants and one 

 that requires no attention, as it can be pruned or not at the owner's discretion. 

 Barberry is fully as hardy as California Privet, and has points of advantage not 

 possessed by other hedge plants. See illustration in color on back cover.

 but the foliage is strongly tinted with purple. 2 to 3 ft., 50 cts. each, 

 $4 for 10. 



American Arborvitae {Thuya ocddentalis) 



Excellent for hedges but equally adaptable for specimens, masses and screens. 

 See page 26 for illustration, description and prices. 



Few trees are so useful as American Arborvitae. For hedges, as specimens, or in 

 masses it is equally handsome. A screen of American Arborvitae, like the one shown, is 

 attractive and useful.
