We have a beautiful old hedge 500 feet long from three to five feet in height, and from 
four to six feet in diameter. This hedge must be close to one hundred years old and would 
make a grand effect along a walk or a drive leading to a colonial residence or as a hedge 
around a choice flower garden.
