beautiful evergreen 
YEW HEDGES can be 
yours at small cost — 
with our THRIFTY 
PLANTS at THRIFTY 
PRICES. 
You can have the 
beauty of their rich 
dark green color; their 
dense compact form - 
and texture; their 
beauty and dignity as garden borders, and the enclosing privacy 
afforded by the larger-growing varieties. 
Naturally this does not mean that large mature YEWS can be had 
for a mere pittance. Neither does it mean that economy can be gained 
only through buying weak, pindling seedlings or bench cuttings. 
You can obtain the sturdy special grade of YEWS which we have 
developed for this particular purpose. Three and four year grade — 
twice (some tHfide) transplanted stock, with heavy root systems, and 
ample in-grown vigor to assure good growth in your garden. 
_ Production of this special grade eliminates the heavy expense of 
growing, packing dnd shipping large heavy plants with their high trans- 
portation costs. We save you this big cost and deliver to you sturdy 
young plants which with ordinary gardening care you can grow inte 
large valuable plants — instead of paying the nurseryman to do it. You 
will have no’end of fun and enjoyment in helping and watching them 
grow. 
You can plant them directly into their permanent position, or if you 
prefer, grow them for a year in a backyard nursery or garden plot, and 
then move them to their permanent hedge position. Directions for plant- 
ing and care are enclosed in each shipment: 
Average planting distance for YEWS in a hedge is 18 inches; the 
larger-growing varieties a little farther apart. The smaller varieties are 
preferably planted closer. In any case where the plants are going di- 
rectly to their permanent hedge position we recommend the closer 
spacings. The table below will help determine the number of plants 
needed for your YEW hedge.
