TREES AND SHRUBS FOR HEDGES 
We shall be pleased to name special prices for plants in large quan¬ 
tity for hedging purposes. Prices per hundred are given on pages indi¬ 
cated. 
EVERGREEN TREES 
The following are only a few r of the varieties that may be used for 
the purpose, but the list covers the most popular. We ask particular 
attention to the Hemlock. Tsuga Canadensis, which is one of the most 
popular and at the same time one of the most satisfactory evergreens for 
hedging purposes.

DECIDUOUS TREES 
A few of the most desirable trees adapted for close planting for 
hedges are as follows: We call particular attention to the Cockspur 
Thorn, Crataegus Crus-galli, which makes a magnificent defensive hedge. 
Strong growth, beautiful foliage and adaptability to trimming place it in 
the front rank of trees for hedges.

EVERGREEN SHRUBS 
There is no doubt that the Boxwood stands first among evergreen 
shrubs for hedge purposes. The plants we are offering are home-grown, 
therefore thoroughly acclimated, and will give excellent results. They 
should not be compared with the freshly imported Box upon which you 
have to take the risk until it is acclimated.

DECIDUOUS SHRUBS 
Of the following the Berberis Thunbergii will make the lowest and 
closest hedge. Next would be the Ligustrum Regelianum, but both of 
these sorts will carry their branches and foliage right down to the 
ground. Of the other varieties the Ligustrums lend themselves readily 
to shearing for formal hedges, while the Hibiscus should be planted 
where the freer growing hedge is desired and the other sorts should be 
used where free-growing, untrimmed hedges are wanted.
