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 pop- 
ular hardy trimmed hedge in the north- 
ern 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 the- 
tween 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.
