about a month later than the Chinese varieties; also

Multijuga, at from $1.50 to $3 each. 
ORNAMENTAL HEDGE PLANTS 
The most artistic fence ever built pales into insignificance when compared with a well-grown and care¬ 
fully trimmed hedge. Nothing can be more desirable for street protection or better for property division 
than a hedge. It may be a little more expensive than a fence in the beginning, but it requires no repair 
and grows in beauty every year. 
For division lines Berbcns Thunbergii is particularly desirable; the plant is graceful, the foliage rich 
green in summer, turning to crimson after the first frosts. For formal plantings the Amoor and California 
Privets are unexcelled; they are easily cared for, and make a dense growth. 
Not less than 40 plants will be furnished at the prices quoted for 100, or 400 at 1,000 rates 
Berberis XHunbcrgll. Thunberg’s Barberry 
A most beautiful dwarf Barberry from Japan. The bright green foliage changes to tones of red in 
autumn. The bright red berries in spring make a beautiful contrast with the green foliage. Leaves retained 
for a long time. Makes a most beautiful and conspicuous low-growing hedge. Strong, well-branched plants, 
12 to 15 in., $2 for 10, $15 per 100.
