BARBERRY 
HEDGE 
(Berberts thunbergt). See 
illustration at left—A 
thorny all-purpose, com- 
pact bushy dwarf shrub 
that is attractive when 
allowed to grow naturally 
to its usual height of about 
threefeet or whentrimmed

Very popular for hedges, 
shrub borders, foundation 
plantings or entrances. 
Except where thorns are 
needed to keep out dogs 
and intruders, (Stark’s 
NEW THORNLESS is 
far more desirable). The 
small light green leaves 
turn to brilliant orange 
and scarlet in the Autumn 
and the bright red berries 
hang on the bush all win-
