PRIVET for Every Climate 
Foi the trim, somewhat formal hedge, whose close Knit intertwining 
branches afford real protection. Privet is the perfect choice. It forms 
a compact impenetrable barrier, a wall of deep green glossy foliage 
which retains its color far into the fall. It may be grown tall, but 
shears to perfection to a height of 2 feet. We offer Privets of several 
types suited to southern or far north regions. Plant spring or fall. 
Amoor River North —This is the hardiest of all Privets, the one to 
choose for locations north of Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Denver. 
Similar in type to the well known California Privet, except that leaves 
are a little less glossy.

California Privet' —Most popular and usable of all the hedge plants. 
Its foliage is deep green and very glossy, a close, uniform, even growth 
that shears most satisfactorily. Very reliable all over the south but 
not dependably hardy north of Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Denver. 
287 PJ 10408 — 12 to 18-inch plants. 
12 for 69c 25 for $1.25 50 for $2.25 100 for $3.95

Caragana —(Siberian Pea Tree) This Russian importation is a par¬ 
ticularly interesting type of Privet, and one whose hardiness makes it 
a find for people living in northwest regions. Its foliage resembles the 
locust and during May and June it is covered with dainty yellow pea¬ 
like flowers.

RUSSIAN MULBERRY 
This handsome hardy Shrub is particularly good in arid western 
districts. It grows, to a height of 12 to 15 feet, and is widely 
planted as a windbreak. It also shears well to lesser heights. Russian 
Mulberry is somewhat coarse and is usually best liked when closely 
clipped.

SPIREA VAN HOUTTE 
(Bridal Wreath) A lawn or garden with a flowering hedge as back¬ 
ground or boundary needs little else to make it charming. Spirea 
Van Houtte, the lovely Bridal Wreath is quite the most effective of 
all for flowering hedges. Spring decks its long, arching branches in 
wreathlike sprays of white blossoms. Its summer foliage is delicate 
and lacy, and autumn’s first frosts turn it ruddy russet. It grows 5 
to 6 feet tall, just the right height for protection and privacy. 
287 PJ 10417—18 to 24-inch plants. 
12 for 95c 25 for $1.85 50 for $3.45 100 for $6.45 
BARBERRY for All Season Color 
Barberry is an ever changing pageant oi color. Choose it as an ac¬ 
cent of color in a vista of lawn, for a foundation planting, or massed 
against a background of taller, darker growth. It may be cropped 
close to 1 M to 2-foot heights, or be let run rampant, a bushy hedge 
rich in close growing foliage. Garden Club Barberries are all rust 
free, healthy and reliable. 
Japanese Barberry —This popular and much planted shrub has a 
gift for every season. It leafs out early into deep green foliage, turns 
coppery red in late summer and fall and bursts into a glory of small 
scarlet berries which linger, cheery and colorful, far into winter. 
287 PJ 10400—12 to 18-inch plants. 
12 for 95c 25 for $1.75 50 for $3.25 100 for $5.95 
287 PJ 10401 — 9 to 12-inch plants, 100 for $4.50. 
Red Leaf Barberry —This is a colorful variant of the Japanese Bar¬ 
berry. Its foliage is deep bronzy red which intensifies as summer ad¬ 
vances. Autumn turns it to orange, unbelievably brilliant, and winter 
decks its boughs with small scarlet berries which cling until long after 
snow. Like Japanese’Barberry it may be clipped close, or permitted 
to grow freely into a bushy effect, 4 to 6 feet high. 
287 PJ 10403 — 12 to 15-inch plants. 
12 for $1.45 25 for $2.75 50 for $4.95 100 for $9.50
