more beautiful and valuable every year. 
Barberry 
Thunbergi 
The best of all hedges for 
low, informal effects, growing to 
three or four feet. It stands 
shearing well, however, and may 
be made a very beautiful for¬ 
mal hedge. Also makes a tight, 
but low defensive hedge. The 
foliage is very fine, in the autumn taking on gorgeous col¬ 
oring and the berries are red and attractive. For formal 
hedges plant one foot apart. For informal hedge plant two 
feet apart.

Privet 
A popular plant for hedges. It is upright and stiff in 
habit of growth. Foliage oval and dark green. When un- 
trimmed will attain a height of 6 to 10 feet. It is most at¬ 
tractive when trimmed to a lower height. May be planted 
in single rows, one or two feet apart, and trimmed to any 
shape desired. 
The most beautiful hedges are planted in two rows 8 to 
12 inches apart. The plants 12 to 18 inches apart are 
staggered. 
Use Amoor Hardy Privet where winters are severe. 
Use California Privet where winters are milder.
