Hedge Plants 
For Beauty and Protection 
Plant deciduous hedge plants six inches apart, and 
after the first season, cut them down to within four 
inches of the ground. From these stubs many sprouts 
will start the next season, and that makes it dense from 
the ground up, which is a necessity for a good hedge. 
To make a satisfactory hedge the ground should be 
well prepared before planting. If the soil is of poor 
quali^ a trench should be dug 15 to 18 inches in depth 
and filled with good, rich soil. This will insure strong 
and rapid root growth.
