I N GARDENS everywhere one sees a revival 
of the Colonial and English figured shrub and 
hedge designs, made possible with the new 
Truehedge Columnberry. 
Not satisfied with natural growth, the “garden 
artist" enjoys painting with a pair of hedge clip' 
pers, if you please, living monuments in totem 
poles and topiary designs, all of which adds so 
much to the individuality of one’s garden. 
The development of pleasing designs is simple. 
By making a rough sketch of the design on paper, 
and outlining the plant with string or following 
the sketch with the eye, it is simply a matter of 
clipping according to the design. 
With a pair of clippers for the broad surfaces 
and a smaller pair for the more detailed parts, the 
Columnberry will take on new forms and shapes 
in a surprisingly short space of time. 
PLANTING DISTANCE 
For dense hedges, plant all Columnberry 10 inches 
apart, but for immediate finished hedge perfection, use 
the following scale at time of planting.

HEIGHT VARIABILITY 
Formal or trimmed Columnberry grown as a dwarf 
hedge, as specimen plants, or as an edging may be easily 
kept to a minimum height of 12 inches or can be de* 
veloped to a maximum of 4 feet. 
Untrimmed or semi'formal Columnberry develops in 
good soil to a maximum height of 4 to 6 feet. 
Truehedge Columnberry is lovely for the modern hotel, 
apartment house or public building—to be planted in 
narrow spots, such as between walks or the promenade. 
After trimming, it takes on that characteristic Boxwood 
appearance with dense green foliage which turns to scar¬ 
let in the autumn, with striking red berries throughout 
the winter.
