DANNY SAYS: 
as they serve. 
HEDGING SHRUBS 
Living, Lasting Fences 
The proper use of hedges adds im- 
measurably to the attractiveness of 
one’s home grounds. They will effec- 
tively mark a boundary line, serve as 
a screen, or furnish a pleasing back- 
ground for an informal planting. 
In this group we offer fine, strong 
plants, suitable for starting live fences. 
hese are well grown, strong rooted 
hedging size specimens which will give 
quick results.

When it comes to hedging, hedge — don’t hedge. Proper 
hedging gives a fence and your neighbors no offense. If you must 
draw the line somewhere, draw it with a hedge. They beautify 


others. 
Group II—The Pines 
Pines (except in occasional cases where 
older wood must be taken out) are pruned 
only in late spring when the new shoots 
(or ‘‘candles’’) have made most of their 
growth, but before the needle ‘‘buds”’ along 
the sides of the new shoot have started to 
elongate. At this time the ‘‘candles’’ may 
be cut off at any desired length and new 
buds for the following season’s growth will 
be formed at the cut end. Mughos may be 
kept symmetrically “in bounds” with this 
annual pruning. 
Group III—Spruce, Fir, Yew, Hemlock 
Preferred pruning consists of heading 
back one year shoots—cutting to one of 
the lateral buds (along side of new shoot). 
If older wood must be removed, cut back 
to another shoot or branch. Best time is 
late in dormant period, as in March or 
April. 
No paint is needed on ordinary evergreen 
pruning wounds. 
If “‘leaders”’ are broken or fail to develop, 
bend the nearest shoot into the position the 
leader should occupy and tie in place to a 
bamboo or similar light stick. After a 
month or two the brace may be removed. 
ROSE CULTURE 
Roses delight in a warm location where 
they will receive plenty of sunshine. They 
are at their best when not competing with 
larger plants for their moisture and light. 
The Rugosa Hybrids, however, seem to do 
well under the ordinary competition of 
other plants in the shrub border. ‘ 
Any effort expended in making the soil 
rich will be generously rewarded with in-
