Truehedge Column-

upright and so beauti¬ 
fully pyramidal in 
shape that upon plant-

hedges are attained—• 
whereas from three to 
four years are required 
to build a satisfactory 
hedge from common 
Japanese Barberry. 
Under natural growth this new plant is decidedly more dense 
and heavier with foliage than the common Japanese Barberry. 
The leaves also appear larger and thicker and of a much deeper, 
glossier and healthier shade of green. Foliage is distributed evenly 
and densely right to the ground. Truehedge Columnberry takes 
on richer and deeper fall colorings than the common variety. 
Fruiting 
Berries are very similar in color and size and hang on about 
the same length of time as on Thunbergi. If anything, this new 
Berberis appears heavier in fruit.
