BARBERRY 
Japanese Thunbergi. Green foliage foliage turning to 
crimson in the fall. Red berries. An excellent plant for 
use as a low hedge. 24-30 in. Bushy stock. $1.25 each. 
Mentorensis. Plant Pat. No. 99. Faultless in hot, dry 
places. A superb hedge plant; this is Mentorensis. Very 
ugged, strong, upright growing branches and quite 
formidable thorns, foliage is heavy and thick, and of 
perfect color—a green as dark as the Japanese Yew.

dense when the plant is 3 or 4 years old. No upkeep! 
No pruning! That sounds like a perfect plant to us. 
Plant it in any location because it is not ‘‘choosy”’ 
where it lives. Ideal for planting among your ever-
