Hardy Russian Privet—(Amoor River North)—If you 
do not know what hedge to plant, we recommend this 
very highly. It is by far the most popular hardy 
trimmed hedge in the northern states. It makes a 
permanent hedge, lasting for generations. Not only 
adds beauty, it also protects your yard especially if 
you have a corner lot. It is fine for a division line 
between yards. Can be trimmed to any desired height, 
making a thick, dense hedge, without thorns right 
down to the ground. Requires trimming only twice 
during the summer. But if you trim it 3 or 4 times, it 
becomes more dense and bushy. Leaves are rich, dark 
green and hang on until very late “fall. Plant 1 foot 
apart.
