OVER A CENTURY OF HONEST DEALING 
Taxus Hedge 
Ftedges The Friendly Way to Fence 
A thrifty, green hedge gives more character and beauty to home 
grounds than any fence ever devised. The first cost is usually less 
than an ordinary fence and trimming less expensive than. painting. 
A hedge is an effective boundary marker, a wall of living green that 
protects the world within from the world without. The different hedge 
plants here listed are adapted to a variety of uses—and the plants 
themselves are in every way Hillenmeyer standard. All hedges should 
be cut back at least one-third when planting. 
(Ligustrum Sinense) 
Chinese Privet 
A rapid, semi-evergreen, loose growing plant that is desirable for 
hedge or screen. It prunes beautifully and can be kept to almost any 
height desired. When closely clipped the leaves are quite small and 
look almost like Boxwood. Occasionally freezes to the ground during 
a severe winter but always comes back with renewed vigor. Our plants 
are bushy transplants and shouid not be compared with light seedlings.

(Ligustrum Ovalifolium) 
California Privet 
Upright in growth, dark, thick, almost evergreen foliage and one of 
the most popular hedge plants. Can be pruned easily and does not 
require clipping as often as the Chinese Privet and is somewhat 
hardier. 
(Ligustrum Ibolium) 
Ibolium Privet 
This comparatively new Privet has proven hardy under the severe 
tests of the past few years. It has many characteristics of the Cali- 
fornia Privet though not as evergreen, and is as hardy as its other 
parent, the Ibota Privet. This superior Privet is a welcomed addi- 
tion since it can be grown and sold at the price of California Privet.

Plant above Privet 6 to 12 inches apart. 
Fragrant Bush Honeysuckle 
(Lonicera Fragrantissima) 
One of the most satisfactory tall-growing screen or hedge plants. 
We do not recommend it where you want to keep it under 32 to 4 
feet. It is strong, vigorous, hardy, dense and holds its foliage well 
into the winter. The small, cream, bell-shaped blossoms appear in 
early spring and are quite fragrant. Normally growing into a hedge 
6 to 12 feet. Requires little pruning and will thrive on almost any 
soil. Whether kept pruned or permitted to grow naturally, it is one 
of our most useful shrubs to screen out objectionable views or to give 
privacy to your property. Plant 12 to 24 inches apart, depending on 
the density desired. Shorten back at least one-half after planting.

Japanese Barberry (Berberis Thunbergi) 
Each year sees an increased use of Japanese Barberry as a hedge 
plant. It is graceful, ornamental, serviceable, and hardy—four points 
that place it at the top of the list. The foliage unfolds in early 
spring, followed by yellow flowers, and later by red berries that re- 
main all winter. In qutumn the whole plant assumes a red tone. 
The drooping branches are thickly set with small spines that will turn 
cats or dogs. Japanese Barberry is excellent for foundation planting 
Zu ae massing in corners. It thrives in bright sun and does well in 
shade.
