We offer a fine stock of young plants. The large plants are 
difficult to transplant, and it is desirable to cut hack severely

one foot apart, but if used for a screen they could beset 18

Tlrs is the coming hedge plant for defensive as well as orna¬ 
mental purposes, far more desirable than Osage Orange. It is 
hardy as far north as New Jersey, and if planted in good soil an 
impenetrable hedge can he had three years from planting. 
Requires hut little trimming after the third year It is entirely 
free from insect depredations and fungousdi eases. In early 
spring when covered with myriads of white flowers, nothing is 
more attractive, and while not an evergreen, the vivid green 
wood makes it appear bright during the winter. Plants may 
be set one foot apart Our hedges of this plant were the lirst 
planted in the United States, and make an impenetrable barrier 
for anything from a rabbit to an elephant.

Our hedges of this desirable evergreen have for years past 
beeo noted for their perfect shape and appearance. It far sur¬ 
passes the variety cultivated in northern sections under the 
name of California Privet (Ligustrum ovalifolium ), which 
assumes a dingy green tint iu winter, whereas the Amoor River 
Privet retains its brighter green color throughout the entire 
year. We have cultivated this plant since 18(56, and during 
that tims have propagated and sold immense quantities for 
planting hedges, which are now to be found iu every section of 
the Southern States. It has stood a cold of 20 degtees below 
zero iu Western North Carolina, and is equally successful in 
South Florida, thus withstanding both extremes of heat and 
cold. It is, therefore, the most desirable of all broad leaved 
evergreens where a tall hedge is desired. Growth very rapid; 
adapts itself to any soil not tco arid or a swamp. If properly 
treated a good hedge may be expected in two years after plant¬ 
ing. Set plants 12 inches apart in ordinary soil, hut in very 
rich land 18 to 24 inches distance may he given. After plants 
are set, cut back to 8 to 10 inches in order to make a dense 
hedge.
