CHINESE ELM—Grows Like Magic. 
HARDY RUSSIAN PRIVET (Amoor River North) 100 for $5.00 
Pictured above. This is the most widely planted hardy trimmed hedge. The 
shiny leaves hang on late in the fall. Makes a fine trimmed hedge any height 
you want. This hedge is hardy but California Privet is not hardy (that is 
why we do not list the California). This hardy privet hedge adds a dis¬ 
tinguished touch to any yard. 
BARBERRY, RED LEAF—The brightest of all hedges. The leaves are 
rich, lustrous bronzy-red, becoming more brilliant thru the summer and fall. 
Has red berries thru the winter. It naturally makes a dense, rounded hedge 
2 to 3 feet tall but can be trimmed to any desired height. Plant in full sun¬ 
light to develop full color. Pictured on page 46. 
HONEYSUCKLE, TARTARIAN—Makes a fine tail hedge or screen, 
growing 8 to 10 feet tall. Pink flowers in May followed by great clusters of 
orange and red berries. It can also be trimmed, making a good medium 
height hedge. Grows in sun or partial shade. Especially fine for drier parts 
of Kansas and Nebraska. Grows everywhere. Pictured on page 46. 
MULBERRY, RUSSIAN—A quick growing economical hedge 
BARBERRY, JAPANESE (Thunberg’s)—Pictm-ed in center circle. A very 
popular low growing hedge. If not trimmed, it makes a dense, rounded hedge 
2 to 3 feet tall and almost as wide. But it can be trimmed to any desired 
height and width. Foliage is bright green, turning to a 
beautiful orange-scarlet in the fall. All winter the bright 
red berries gleam along the branches. Grows in 
sun or partial shade. This is the rust-free 
variety which can be planted everywhere. If 
there is a corner of your yard where people 
“cut across,” plant some of these and they 
will stop it. 
SPIREA HEDGE 
5.00 
In China, its original home, it has been 
used as a hedge for centuries. It can be 
kept trimmed to a medium height hedge 
or a taller screen. Makes an immense num¬ 
ber of small twigs, just full of leaves. 
Therefore when trimmed it makes a very 
compact, dense hedge. Perfectly hardy 
and planted in every state. Grows so 
rapidly that it will make a hedge in just a few 
months. The more you trim it, the bushier it 
gets. As it becomes known, we believe that it will 
be planted for hedging by the millions. HARDY, 
BEAUTIFUL, FAST GROWING AND PRICED VERY LOW.
