bush, constantly in bloom all sum- 
mer. Flower clusters large, flat 
topped and of deep rose color. The 
leaves are frequently variegated 
yellow and red. 12-18 in. 75c; 18-24 
in. $1.00.

—4-5 ft. A Japanese variety of stiff 
irregular growth with white flowers 
which completely cover the twigs

spring. Attractive light, feathery 
foliage. One of the first shrubs to 
bloom in the spring. Splendid in a 
foundation planting. 2-3 ft. $1.00; 
3-4 ft. $1.50. 
SPIREA—Ash Leaved Sorbifolia)—

SPIREA BRIDAL WREATH (Van 
Houitei)—5-6 ft. This is the most 
popular of all the spireas, and is

branches heaped as they are with 
the white blossoms in spring and its 
thriftiness under the most trying 
conditions are the reason for its pop- 
ularity. 2-3 ft. 70c: 3-4 ft. $1.00. 
SPIREA FROEBELI—2-3 ft. A low, 
bushy shrub of the Anthony Waterer 
type, but more sturdy in habit.

DANNY SAYS: 
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 as they serve.

HEDGING SHRUBS 
Living, Lasting Fences 
The proper use of hedges adds 
immeasurably to the attractiveness 
of one’s home grounds. They will 
effectively mark a boundary line, 
serve as a screen, or furnish a pleas- 
ing background for an informal 
planting. 
In this group we offer fine, strong 
plants, suitable for starting live 
fences. These are well grown, strong 
rooted hedging size specimens which 
will give quick results.

dish seed pods which give the effect 
of red berries, making a pleasing 
contrast with the golden tinged fol- 
iage. 2-3 ft. $1.00; 3-4 ft. $1.25; 4-5

white flowers in May or June are

ing habit, with more or less pendu- 
lous branches and clusters of bell- 
shaped flowers. Showy in spring and 
early summer. Thrives in moist soil. 
Needs winter protection if planted 
in exposed places. 3-4 ft. $1.25. 

PRUNING HEDGES 
The newly planted hedge should be 
pruned heavily and at a uniform height. 
When the plant is cut back, all new shoots 
will develop from the remaining “stubs.” 
The closer to the ground that the cut is 
made, the closer to the ground the new 
branches will be; and as these branches 
establish the permanent framework of the 
hedge, the fuller and denser the future 
hedge will become at the base. 
Subsequent trimming consists of pruning 
back, several times each season, for the 
first two or three years until the hedge 
reaches the desired height. This treatment 
forces continuous low side branching as 
the plants gain height, and insures a full 
compact hedge with maximum freedom 
from “legginess” and “two story” effects. 
Later pruning consists of trimming as 
often as appearance demands it. As the 
finished size is reached, the hedge should 
be trained to be somewhat wider at the 
base than on top. This allows sunlight to 
reach the lower leaves and prevents the 
loss of lower branches as the years go on.
