HEDGES: 
Hedges must be allowed to grow, 
even if only an inch a year. Starv¬ 
ing it to keep it small is no answer, 
it results only in a sickly row of 
bushes. Fertilize, get a good 
growth, then shear or prune it 
back. The finest hedges start 
small, usually feet apart. 
of HEMLOCK 
Hemlock hedges (Tsiiga canadensis) 
when properly sheared give a fine, even, 
smooth dark green surface unlike any 
other hedge. The plant thrives in soils 
ranging from ordinary to damp, and 
from full sun to full shade, hence is 
easy to grow.

of JAPANESE YEW 
TREE FORM Japanese Yew (Taxus Cuspidata) is sometimes 
called “Capitata”. It is undoubtedly the best hedge plant for 
north-eastern America. It responds to shearing with a dense 
even textured surface. It grows fairly rapidly the first few years 
and then slows down to a yearly growth which permits it to be 
kept easily around 6 to 8 feet high and 3 to 4 feet wide. It grows 
in any known soil, (best in humus) stands drought fairly well, or 
flood rather better. Needles do not suffer in severe winds as far 
north as Zone III.
