RUSSIAN OLIVE 
Imagine a dense hedge, fit to trim to most any 
desired height, broad, perfectly hardy, with a 
good and healthy foliage. This alone would 
make the Russian Olive desirable for a hedge. 
But the 
Silvery White 
of its leaves shows up wonderfully well. There 
are but few hedges of this great variety, and 
this is just another reason why I promise you 
something outstanding. See page 19. 12 to 18

Planting 
Instructions 
Any hedge plant, in 
order to become dense 
—and this is essential 
for a good h e d g e— 
must be pruned while 
young. Cut your new¬ 
ly planted hedge down 
to within a few inches 
from the ground and 
each spring repeat 
pruning, just allowing 
a few inches of last 
year’s growth to re¬ 
main.
