Amoor River Nortfi Privet 
(Ligustrum amurense) 
The hardiest Russian Privet of them Ideal 
all, and the only Privet to use for . , 
hedge plantings in the North. Thick, I rimmed 
compact grower, densely covered Formal 
with lustrous, light green leaves that . r . 
remain on the plant until late in the Hedge 
season. When properly sheared will give a very 
formal effect. Privet plants should be set 12 
inches apart in the hedge. To get a bushy, com¬ 
pact hedge, the plants should be set several inches 
deeper than they were in the nursery and given 
a severe trimming at once, cutting them back one- 
third to one-half. Trim your hedge at least once a 
year in May or early June, squaring off the sides as well as the top. rt 1 ^ •

TRUEHEDGE COLUMNBERRY 
(Berberis thunbergi pluriflora erecta) 
The new, sensational Barberry, three times as 
dense as the Japanese Barberry, the thick branch¬ 
es in close, vertical.formation, and very thickly 
covered from the ground up with large, deep 
green, glossy leaves. An excellent hedge of semi- 
formal appearance is developed from the un¬ 
trimmed plants, while five minutes pruning will 
result in a formal, compact hedge of boxwood 
lines, giving it the nickname “Boxwood Bar¬ 
berry.** 
Single specimens, with a few minutes shearing, 
are created into superb garden subjects—classic 
spires for entrances and formal gardens, or any 
sort of artistic shape for those who delight in the 
unusual. Perfectly hardy, immune from rust; in 
autumn, scarlet berries and deep red leaves add 
to the beauty of the plant. 
A grand plant for hedges or landscape groups.
