NOTE — To save freight, we always cut back 
Amoor River Privet before shipping, unless in¬ 
structed to the contrary. This also avoids the 
possibility of the plants heating, should there be 
delay in transit. 
How to Make a Privet Hedge—Prepare the 
ground by plowing or spading to the proper 
width and depth. Open the trench 12 inches 
wide by 15 inches deep. Apply to this a liberal 
amount of well-rotted stable manure, and if this 
is not available, bone meal or some high grade 
fertilizer. Mix the manure or fertilizer thor¬ 
oughly with the soil. Set the plants in a 
straight line in the trench one foot apart, about 
one inch deeper than they originally stood in 
the nursery row. Firm the earth well about 
the roots, level off, and then cut the plants back 
to within four inches of the ground. In the 
spring, after the plants have made a growth of 
six or eight inches, cut off one-half of this 
growth, both sides and top, and proceed in a 
like manner with each succeeding growth until 
your hedge has reached the desired height and 
width. Cultivate well. 
Poncirus 
Poncirus trifoliata. (Citrus trifoliata.) (Hardy 
Orange.) As an ornamental flowering plant, 
few are more desirable. The plant attains a 
height of 10 to 15 feet, and is very bushy and 
thorny; foliage trifoliata, retained quite late, 
but is not an evergreen here; however, the 
vivid green wood gives it an evergreen ap¬ 
pearance during winter. In early March the 
plant is covered with a mass of large, single. 
white flowers ,and a second and third crop of 
blooms, of similar size, are produced during 
summer. The bright golden fruit is retained 
during winter, which makes this plant a 
showy garden feature. It is also an excellent 
hedge plant.
