Red Leaf Barberry 

Amoor River North Privet 
(Ligustrum amurense.) The hardiest and 
healthiest privet for cold climates. The 
foliage is dark, glossy green, resistant to 
insect pests and not subject to blight. 
The leaves appear early in spring and 
remain very late in fall. Thrives on all 
soils without special care. Can be clipped 
any time in summer to desired height. 
When planting, cut back to 4 inches 
above ground to make hedge bushy at 
bottom. Set plants 9 to 12 inches apart. 
Green Leaf Barberry 
(Berberis Thunbergi.) Dwarf growing, 
uniformly bushy and rounded in form, 
with numerous leaves covering thorny 
twigs. As a filler edging for shrubbery, as 
a foundation screen, or a hardy, low 
hedge, it is unsurpassed. Foliage bright, 
rich green, turning to a blaze of gold and 
crimson in autumn. Small creamy white 
flowers, followed by an abundance of red 
berries which cover every branch in fall 
and far into winter.

(Berberis thunbergi atropurpurea.) There 
is nothing so strikingly brilliant in hardy 
shrubbery as our genuine true-red strain 
of Red-Leaf Barberry. Its abundance of 
thick, purplish-maroon leaves glisten in 
the sun, contrasting with the green and 
yellow of other plants. Valuable for 
single specimens, corner groups, and solid 
border hedges. Leaves bud out early in 
spring and remain into winter. Bush is 
covered with red berries which last all 
winter. Set plants 18 inches apart in full 
sunlight. 
Chinese Elm makes one of the finest 
hedges. Especially desirable for states of 
light rainfall, and where extreme hardi- 
ness is essential. The hedge is a bright, 
rich green from very early spring, coloring 
with frost, and lasting way into the fall. 
Keep tops cut back, and trim same as 
Privet or similar hedges.

Amoor River North Privet 
Blue-Leaf Arctic Willow 
(Salix Purpurea Nana) Here is some- 
thing new and distinctively different 
in the way of a hedge plant. A neatly 
trimmed border of Blue-Leaf Arctic 
Willow at the edge of the lawn, or by 
the driveway, will add just the strik- 
ingly individual touch to your grounds 
that you've been looking for. It is still 
uncommon, and will attract notice and 
favorable comments wherever seen. 
This charming dwarf Willow, dis- 
covered North of the Arctic Circle, 
grows anywhere in wet or heavy soil, 
and is perfectly hardy through any 
winter temperatures in the U. S. The 
foliage is a delightful combined shade 
of gray-blue and green. Can be 
clipped for formal effect, or allowed to 
grow naturally if preferred. Also ideal 
as single specimens in the rock garden.
