Ornamental  Hedge  Plants 
In  Ornamental  Hedge  Plants  we  oflter  a  good  variety.  We  have  given  this  branch  of  our 
l)usiness  much  attention,  and  are  prepared  to  offer  all  the  more  desirable  sorts.  Our  plants  are 
strictly  graded,  according  to  the  measurements  given,  and  well  rooted.  In  planting  hedges  these 
roots  should  be  given  trenches  wide  enough  to  spread  them  out  flat,  and  good  top-soil  filled  in 
about  them.  This  last  is  especially  desirable  for  evergreen  hedge  plants,  or  they  cannot  maintain 
a  good,  rich  color.  Deciduous  hedge  plants,  as  a  general  rule,  should  be  planted  from  6  to 
12  inches  apart ;  evergreens  from  i  to  2  feet  apart,  according  to  size.  Gardens  screened  by  ever- 
green hedges  or  shelter-belts  produce  vegetables  from  one  to  two  w^eeks  earlier  than  those  unpro- 
tected.   Hedges  form  not  only  a  cheap  but  an  ornamental  and  enduring  fence. 
EVERGREEN 
PICEA  excelsa.  Norway  Spruce.  Makes  a 
\'ery  dense,  compact  hedge.  Very  desirable
