TRIMMED HEDGES 
Per 100 
CBATASGUS Oxyacantha ( English Hawthorn). This is the 
Thorn that is used all over England for field and farm 
hedges. It is very attractive, being covered with white, 
sweet-scented flowers in the spring, and bright scarlet 
berries in the fall and winter. Nice plants, 24 to 36 inches 
biffli..$10 00 
Pyracantha Lalandi (Improved Evergreen Thorn). I think 
the most, beautiful hedge I ever saw in America is one of 
this Thorn, on the grounds of Mr. Winthrop, at Newport, 
R. I. The foliage is dense and of a beautiful glossy green, 
which turns in the winter to a rich bronze. In the fall and 
winter this thorn is covered with small bright scarlet ber¬ 
ries, which make it extremely attractive. Small plants_ 10 00 
HEMLOCK SPRUCE. This undoubtedly makes the most 
beautiful evergreen hedge that can be grown in this cli¬ 
mate. It is perfectly hardy, a fine rich green in color, which 
color it retains all through the winter; and no matter how 
hard it is trimmed, the peculiar feathery appearance of its 
young growth always gives it a graceful appearance. Plant 
18 to 24 inches apart. Nice young plants, 8 to 15 in. high. 15 00 
12 to 18 inches. DO 00 
MAHONIA Aquifolium. This, which is one of the most beauti¬ 
ful evergreen shrubs, makes a splendid hedge. It is covered 
with showy yellow flowers in the spring, but its greatest 
beauty is its foliage, which is fine at all seasons of the year, 
but especially so in the fall and winter, when it turns to the 
finest bronze anil crimson. It is especially desirable ns a 
trimmed or untrimmed hedge. Plant 18 inches apart. We 
offer a splendid stock of plants, 12 to 18 inches high, at less 
than they can be bought for at wholesale. 12 00 
PRIVET, California. This is the most popular hedge plant 
in this country, which is explained by its handsome appear¬ 
ance, rapid growth and low price. A fine hedge, five feet 
high, can be made with it in three seasons if planted in deep, 
rich soil. It should he planted in single rows. 8 to 10 inches 
apart, or alternated in double rows, and the plants set 16 to 
18 inches apart in each row, and the rows 6 inches apart.

UNTRIMMED HEDGES 
Untrimmed hedges are allowed to grow naturally without pruning, 
and, as a rule, are not suitable for planting on the boundaries of 
grounds, but can he used for enclosing flower or vegetable gardens, 
on the edges of terraces and along roads and walks. Sometimes they 
can be used to conceal unsightly but necessary fences. 
Per 100 
ALTH2EA (Rose of Sharon). These make a desirable flower¬ 
ing hedge ; bloom in August. They should be cut back 
to keep them compact. Nice young plants, seedlings.$10 00

BERBERIS Thunbergii (Japanese Barberry). One of the most 
beautiful shrubs in cultivation, either for hedging or gen¬ 
eral purposes. It is of a neat, compact growth and never need 
be touched with the shears. The foliage is beautiful at all 
times, and in the fall turns to a most brilliant crimson color, 
hut its most attractive feature is its fruit. The plant is 
literally covered with bright scarlet berries all the fall and 
winter. It never grows over about three feet high. If alow 
hedge is desired, it can lie used for a boundary one. Iris fine 
for the edge of a terrace and along roads and walks; ns it 
is quite thorny, boys and cattle will leave it alone. Plant 15 
to 18 inches apart.small plants, $6, large plants, 13 00 
CORCHORIS Japonica variegata. This makes one of the 
daintiest little hedges imaginable. The growth is slender 
and graceful, the foliage is of fine form and variegated, and 
after the leaves drop in the fall the twigs are a bright 
green color, which makes it attractive all winter. 14 00 
KALMIA latifolia (Mountain Laurel). This splendid native 
evergreen shrub makes a beautiful and unique hedge. It 
would be worth growing for its fine evergreen foliage alone, 
but when it is in bloom in June, nothing in the world makes 
a finer floral display. Nice transplanted plants, 0 to 12 in.. 15 00 
LILACS. The common Purple and White Lilacs make a desir¬ 
able flowering hedge, but of course a very tall one. I can 
supply both colors, nice plants, I to 2 feet high. 8 00 
ROSE, Crimson Rambler. This remarkably fine climbing 
Rose makes a superb hedge if planted in a row, and cut 
back early every spring to about three feet high. 20 00 
Sweetbrier. The popular Sweetbrier makes an attractive 
hedge and is desirable for planting along a fence. 12 00 
Mad. Plantier. This well-known hardy white Rose makes a 
flue hedge, and when in bloom in June nothing can he 
more attractive. 20 00
