B. F. BARR NURSERIES, LANCASTER, PA. ^ 
Boxwoods—All ’Round Useful Plants 
Boxwood lends itself to planting as specimens, in groups with other Evergreens, for 
hedges, and for borders. Will thrive in full sunlight, or in shady locations where no other 
Evergreen will grow. Give a light protection the first Winter after planting. 
Here is pictured an untrimmed Roundleaf Boxwood 
which makes a rich appearance. Boxwood will do well 
under trees. For difficult situations plant Boxwoods.
