Hedges Must Grow. An inch a year 
is enough—more if desired. When a 
hedge is too large, prune severely and 
then let soft new growth come back.

ROSA MULTIFLORA ‘FENCE’ 
No repairs, no maintenance problems, it 
just grows. No animals can get through, 
yet birds and small game can use it for 
refuge. It does not get out of hand, 
kept 5 feet high, width 8 feet. (Not for 
small gardens.) 
Plant a single row, 1 foot apart. Cut 
back roots to 8 inches, tops to 3 or 
4 inches on planting. Mulching is very 
beneficial—leaves, hay, sawdust, or what- 
ever you have. Effective in three or four 
years, mature in seven.
