HEDGE PLANTS= CALIFORNIA PRIVET. 
Privet we consider the most popular of all hedge 
plants, and decidedly the finest and best of all for 
forming an ornamental hedge, its foliage being so 
abundant as to produce a wall of the deepest, richest 
green. It can almost be called an evergreen, as its fo¬ 
liage is not shed until lateinthe winter and then only 
in an exposed position. We mention some of its 
merits: 
It is very hardy, easily and quickly pruned: will 
grow almost anywhere; can be kept down to 18 
inches, or you can let it grow, if a screen is required, 
to 15 feet high. You may have It narrow or wide.
