ELLWANOER & BARRY'S CATALOGUE. 
DIRECTIONS FOR SETTING. 
Evergreens must be handled with care, so as not to allow the roots to become 
dried by the wind. Plants for hedges being generally set when quite small, should be 
placed about nine inches apart — larger sized plants will require more space. 
lloney IjOcust and Osage Orange are generally planted in double rows, about nine 
inches apart. 
PRUNING. 
Evergreens should be pruned in spring, just before they commence growing. Sum¬ 
mer pruning may be practiced on the Arbor Vita should the growth be too rapid.
