Japanese Barberry 
Thunberg’s Barberry—This might well be 
called the most valuable of the low-growing 
shrubs. 11 will sta nd pruning in any form; masses 
well in any situation; is very attractive and 
showy during the whole season, and is particu¬ 
larly beautiful in the fall, and one of its best 
qualities is that it is effective during the entire 
winter, as it has beautiful red berries, which 
combine well with winter landscapes or with the 
dark foliage of evergreens. Makes an excellent 
hedge plant, and is extensively used as such.

most popular hedge plants. Plant 8 to 12 inches
