California Privet 
One of the leadins hedge plants and undoubtedly the largest planted one 
of them all; its foliage produces abundantly the deepest, richest green, almost 
an evergreen; does not shed its foliage until late winter and then only in an 
exposed condition; it Is green eleven months every year, very hardy, easily 
and quickly pruned and will thrive well on any soil that will show any sign of 
plant life. Can be kept down to 18 inches or you can let it grow as high as 
you wish; you may have it wide or narrow. They should be planted V> inch 
deeper tlian they stood in the nursery row; where you set it dig about 12 
inches deep and 12 inches wide; use some stable manure at the roots (do not 
use any commercial fertilizer), set the plants 6 inches apart in the row, dip 
the roots in water before planting; after plants are set out them down to o 
Inches from the top of the ground, this will cause a thick new growth to start, 
then do not cut back again until they have made from 10 to 15 inches of new 
growth which they will do before the season of growing is at an end; when 
cutting' back each time allow 2 inches above where it was cut before until 
you get same as high as vou want it. A coat of stable manure should be 
spread around them after they are planted; keep free from weeds the first 
two years, by this time it will get its start, then nature will do the rest. Did 
you ever realize what an admiring and luxuriant privet Hedge you could secure
