If you’re interested in planting a ‘Living Fence’, I’m certainly 
the man to help you do the job right. Whatever your problem, 
it’s a sure thing I’ve run across it with one of my other customers, 
and I’ve helped them work out the right answer. I'll sure be 
pleased to do the same for you! Guess I’ve done more to popular- 
ize the idea of a LIVING fence than anybody else in the country. 
The main reason I’ve satisfied so many people is that my 
Multi-flora Rose plants are grown especially for fencing purposes. They’re great big 
field-grown bushes that are 3 to 4 feet high before I dig em out of the nursery. Then 
they’re cut back to 12 inches or so before they’re shipped out. That gives you a big 
strong root system and a little bitty top on it. When those roots get well established 
in your ground, the new growth comes up nice and thick. It’s only a few months 
before you have 3 or 4 feet of new growth. 
But...if you don’t want a Living Fence 5 or 6 feet tall...and so dense even a 
kitten can’t get through it, then read about some of the other Living Fence sug- 
gestions I have to offer. There’s a “Living Fence” suitable for any special location. 
RECOMMENDED PLANTS: 
If you want a Living Fence that blossoms ALL 
SUMMER...one that won’t grow over 2 or 3 feet “Pink Dogwood” 
tall, then DON’T plant my Multi-Flora Roses! For Rose — see p. 5 
All-Summer bloom on low rose hedges, you need my 
Floribunda Roses, which I call “Cluster” Roses so Cluster Roses — 
you can remember them easily. They’re on pages 6 see p. 8-9 
and 7. Look at the clusters of blooms they bear; read 
about the colors. And for the best 3 foot flowering 
rose hedge, look at that ‘Pink Dogwood’ Rose on the 
cover. It’s the ideal “Everblooming Rose Hedge”! 
Dwarf Spirea — 
see p. 27 
RECOMMENDED PLANTS: 
Now...on 6 to 8 foot hedges, you get into my 
Multi-Flora roses. They’re not going to bloom all Multi-Flora Roses 
summer, and you can’t very well keep ‘em down — see p. 16-17 
small. But...if you need high, dense protection, Wid? Bocke Coven. 
then plant my Multi-Flora Roses for lightening- 
quick results. For slower results in 6 to 8 foot hedges, age 
plant Lilacs, Giant Shrub Roses, Forsythia, Spirea Hybrid Lilacs — 
Van Houtte, Bush Honeysuckle, Altheas or any of see p. 28 
the other flowering shrubs listed on pages 28 and 29. 
RECOMMENDED PLANTS: 
Need something really T-A-L-L? Then there’s just 
one quick answer. Read about my TALL, SLENDER 
Loml 
LOMBARDY -POPLARS on page 26. Now there’s a Gnibarcy Foplars 
plant that makes a screen planting anywhere from — see p. 26 
15 to 40 feet high, but if you plant ’em close enough, 
they’re so dense you can’t even see through ’em. Chinese Elms — 
And they grow fastest of any tree too! The other see p. 25 
trees suitable for screen plantings are Willows and 
Chinese Elms, both dense, fast-growing trees!
