As a general rule hedge plants should be planted deeper than when 
growing in the nursery rows so that the branches from the main stem 
apparently spring from the ground. By trimming down close for the first 
two or three years a bushy growth is encouraged, resulting in a more com¬ 
pact hedge. Where a wide or tall hedge is desired it is better to plant in a 
double row. For low hedges set plants 8 to 12 inches apart and for taller 
growing hedges or wind-breaks 18 to 24 inches apart. The size of the plant 
selected should not influence the distance apart any one variety is planted.
