Ornamental Hedge Plants 
Nothing can be more desirable for street protection or property divisions than a well-grown 
and carefully trimmed hedge. It may be a little more expensive than a fence in the beginning, 
but no repairs are required and it grows in beauty from year to year. 
For dividing lines, where a low hedge is desired, nothing is more appropriate than Abelia 
grandiflora. Berberis Thunbergii, Spiraea Thunbergii or Viburnum Tinus. All of these plants 
are graceful in form and beautiful in foliage and flowers. For normal plantings the Amoor and 
California Privet, Boxwood and Carolina Cherry are unsurpassed. All are evergreens and easily 
cared for and make a dense and compact growth. 
NOTE—Not less than 40 plants will be furnished at the price quoted per hundred; not less 
than 400 at the price quoted per thousand.

Ligustrum 
(Privet) 
Ligustrum aniurense. (Amoor River Privet.) 
The true variety. For the South it is far 
superior to the California Privet, which loses 
its leaves during winter, -whereas the Amoor 
River Privet retains its foliage throughout 
the entire year. Since 1866 we have cultivat¬ 
ed and disseminated millions of the Amoor 
River Privet, and it is without doubt the most 
popular evergreen hedge plant of the day. It 
is of rapid-growth, adapts itself to almost 
any soil not too arid or extremely wet. If 
properly treated, a hedge may be secured in 
two years after planting.
