CANADIAN HEMLOCK HEDGE 
The soft, feathery branches of the Hemlock form a graceful and dignified en- 
closure for the lawn and define a driveway. Such hedges have year-round 
interest because of their evergreen character.

This is a typical, compact, bushy specimen as grown in our nurseries. It is 
used also for naturalizing in the woodland and makes a splendid companion for 
the Flowering Dogwood tree. 

HEDGES 
Bee have many uses in the landscape develop- 
ment of all properties. Whenever privacy is re- 
quired, an intimate garden to be enclosed, a vista to be 
framed, there is a particular plant that will lend itself 
more gracefully than would the severe line of a fence. 
Hedges, such as pictured on these pages are inexpensive, 
have a very low maintenance cost, and have a quality of 
verdant luxuriousness. Such effects can be secured at 
once with Outpost hedge plants. 

Hedge of 
ENGLISH BEECH 
Fagus sylvatica 
The silver-barked stems and branches form 
an impenetrable hedge. The leaves are dense, 
a lustrous dark green and prominently veined. 
They provide all-year interest; in the Spring the 
copper-colored Autumn leaves are shed as the 
new leaf-buds swell and develop. Notice the 
compact, uniform growth, even in the shade of 
large trees.
