WHO can enjoy the advan- 

 tages of a living fence? 



Living fence makes an excellent 

 border for all property where it is 

 desirable to discourage trespassing. 

 At the same time, Rosa multiflora 

 provides a year-round source of 

 beauty. 



WHAT is a living fence? 



Living fence (Rosa multiflora 

 japonica) is a thorny type wild 

 Rose, which provides color in all 

 seasons: white blossoms in spring, 

 green leaves in summer and fall, 

 red berries in winter. Living fence 

 is excellent for soil erosion. Pro- 



vides bird cover and food during 

 winter months. Even the smallest 

 type of animal will not penetrate it. 

 Plants shipped to you are 

 northern grown and attain a 

 height of 9 to 18 inches in the 

 nursery row. All seedlings trim- 

 med to 12 inches at the nursery, 

 before shipping. 



WHENshould living fence 

 be planted? 



Fall is a good time to plant, 

 because it permits your living 

 fence to get an early spring start. 

 The simple instructions which will 

 accompany your shipment will 

 give you detailed information for 



planting. You will have a full- 

 grown fence within three to four 

 years. It is not unusual to obtain 

 2 to 3-foot growth per season. 



WHERE can living fence 

 be used? 



At maturity living fence attains 



a height and width of 8 feet and 

 consequently should not be used 

 on small city lots unless it is 

 regularly trimmed, to control its 

 growth. Where space is adequate, 

 it is the cheapest and most at- 

 tractive means for screening out 

 road dust, traffic noise and all 

 types of trespassing. A dense 

 fence is provided by planting at 

 18-inch intervals. 



Rosa multiflora does well in most any type of soil and does not re- 

 quire replacement or maintenance, as do most other types of fencing. 



Living fence has been endorsed by the United States Department 

 of Agriculture; see Leaflet #256. 



All plants will be shipped at the proper time for planting this fall and will 

 arrive postpaid, packed in sphagnum moss.
