TEAS WAXLEAF 
Ligustrum japonicum, Wax Leaf. We have maintained

good friend always looks neat and presentable. Polished 
deep-green leaves about 2 inches in length form a dense mass 
of cool foliage that is always at its best. If allowed to grow 
unpruned the plant attains a height of 8 to 10 feet, with 
approximately the same spread, and is well furnished right 
down to the ground. Trimmed, the plant may be kept under 
a 4-ft. window and grown as a hardy hedge, we assure you 
there is no plant of greater virtue. It feels equally at home 
in sun or shade. Balled, bushy, 3-4 ft., $3.00; 2-3 ft., $2.00;

shaped flowers crowd each branch tip. Forms a smart dense 
shrub to about 2% ft. Thrives in either sun or shade. Hardy.
