Spirea Van Houtte—The Best Tall Growing Flowering Hedge 
Rightfully called “the one best shrub” for a flowering hedge, where its gracefully arching slender branches and 
“maidenhair” foliage may be left untrimmed. A fountain of white in May and June, emphasizes the beauty of the 
surrounding landscape. Plant 24 to 30 inches apart. Ultimate height 4 to 6 feet. 
A friendly, living hedge will give a touch of privacy to your home, yet 
it will not interfere with the view. Trimmed formally or allowed to grow 
naturally—it provides not only protection from small animals but re- 
quires no painting or repairing and is a permanent investment. 

Barberry Thunbergi 
The hedge of beauty, density, and protection. If not trimmed makes beautiful low informal hedge, or if trimmed 
makes splendid formal hedge. The foliage is very fine, green in summer and gorgeous red and gold in the autumn. 
Has red berries which remain most of the winter. For a formal hedge, plant one foot apart—for an informal hedge 
plant two feet apart.
