Hardy Deciduous Hedges 
There is nothing quite so effective for the boundaries of a lawn or property 
division as a hedge. It does not decay, nor does it require paint, but grows more 
beautiful, more effective, and consequently more valuable, year after year. A 
good hedge is an asset to any piece of property. The first cost of installing a 
hedge is its only cost, so that, from an economical standpoint, it is less expensive 
than a fence. Dense, impenetrable hedges may be had if Japanese Barberry, 
Buckthorn or Alpine Currant is used. 
ALPINE CURRANT 
Absolutely hardy, free from disease and 
insect pests, bright green foliage which 
remains on the plants until late in fall. 
Grows very bushy and is best variety 
for ornamental hedge from one to three 
feet in height. Plant fifteen inches apart.

BUCKTHORN 
This not only makes a very ornamental 
hedge but is the best variety for pro¬ 
tection as the branches are stiff and 
makes a stout hedge of any height from 
two to ten feet. Our plants have been 
transplanted and twice cut back, mak¬ 
ing them much superior to the seed¬ 
ling plants sold by some nurseries at 
a lower .price. Plant 
12 inches 
apart.
