How to Plant Shrubs 
No need to say much. Every nursery 
order we send out has complete in- 
structions easy to follow. Mostly, low 
growers are set 2 ft. apart, medium 
growers 3 ft. apart, and tall growers 
4 ft. apart. Set out 2 feet from foun- 
dation. Spread roots out well, tamp 
earth back solidly, and prune to make 
bushy growth. 
Don't Buy by Height 
No. sense in telling you shrubs are 
12” to 18” high or 18” to 24”. You 
don’t care a rap for a big, spindly 
shrub with poor roots. So here’s how 
we grade plants: 
We grade out only the largest, 
strongest shrubs with the largest, heav- 
iest root systems. The smaller ones 
are not for sale. Only two sizes—Se- 
lect and Extra Select. Both BIG. You 
get the best when you order from 
Henry Field’s. 
All Shrubs Inspected Twice 
All our shrubs are carefully in- 
spected, once when dug and again be- 
fore they are shipped on your order. 
Absolute quality is assured. All bad 
shrubs are destroyed. The good ones 
are carefully wrapped and packed in 
special moss so you receive them in the 
best possible condition. 
Leading Varieties Only 
We have tried to offer only the finest, 
most popular shrubs. All are selected 
because they give color and beauty 
and fill a useful need around the homes 
of you folks who buy them. Easy to 
grow. No special care unless we tell 
you so here.

ROSA MULTIFLORA 
Beauty that Protects 
A1619—Rosa Multifiora, the hardy 
Japanese Rose, gained its popularity 
first as a living field fence and for 
shelter belts and erosion control. But 
now many people are discovering that 
it also makes a fine trimmed or un- 
trimmed hedge, even on a small city 
lot. 
It makes a dense, thorny barrier 
that stops traffic across your yard 
or garden. And just as it keeps live- 
stock in a field, it keeps your pre- 
school youngsters from wandering out 
of the yard. 
In the spring, even if trimmed, it 
bears clusters of small, white, wild 
roses and, in the fall, the berries turn 
a pretty, bright red. If you let it 
grow, it will get tall enough to make 
a good screen. Ideal on terraces be- 
cause it stops washing. Does not 
sucker or spread so does not interfere 
with nearby plants or garden, and 
you'll find it easy to run a lawn mower 
under its arching branches. 
Grows 2 ft. to 6 ft. high, depending 
upon how you trim it. We do not offer 
the small conservation grade as we 
believe the loss in planting is too 
great with that size plants. And our 
18” to 24” Super Grade will make you 
a hedge in a hurry.
