es rites 
On small grounds the low growing hedges are the 
most used, while for larger grounds and for screening 
the higher and more spreading sorts are more adapt- 
able. For hedge purposes the plants should be set 
one foot apart and pruned severely at planting time. 
Have the ground fairly rich and stirred to a depth of 
at least a foot to give the young roots a better chance 
tomstart. ‘ 
by cultivating at least a foot on each side. 
Keep your hedge free from weeds and grass
