The Friendly Way 
to Fence 
A thrifty, green hedge gives more 
character and beauty to home grounds 
than any fence ever devised. The first 
cost is usually less than ordinary fence 
and trimming less expensive than 
painting. A hedge is an effective 
boundary marker, a wall of living 
green that protects the world within 
from the world without. The different 
hedge plants here are adapted to a 
variety of uses—and the plants them- 
selves are in every way Hillenmeyer 
standard. All hedges should be cut 
back at least one-third when planting. 
Japanese Barberry 
Chinese Privet 
(Ligustrum Sinense) 
A rapid, semi-evergreen, 
loose-growing plant that is de- 
sirable for hedge or screen. It 
prunes beautifully and can be 
kept to almost any height de- 
sired. When closely clipped the 
leaves are quite small and look almost like Boxwood. Occasionally 
freezes to the ground during a severe winter but always comes back 
with renewed vigor. Our plants are bushy transplants and should not 
Japanese Barberry (Berberis Thunbergi) 
Each year sees an increased use of Japanese Barberry as a hedge 
plant. It is graceful, ornamental, serviceable, and hardy—four points 
that place it at the top of the list. The foliage unfolds in early 
spring, followed by yellow flowers, and later by red berries that re- 
main all winter. In autumn the whole plant assumes a red tone. 
The drooping branches are thickly set with small spines that will turn 
cats and dogs. Japanese Barberry is excellent for foundation planting 
or for massing in corners. It thrives in bright sun and does well in

shade.

Fragrant Bush Honeysuckle 
(Lonicera Fragrantissima) 
One of the most satisfactory tall-growing screen or hedge plants. 
We do not recommend it where you want to keep it under 31/2 to 4 
feet. It is strong, vigorous, hardy, dense and holds its foliage well 
into the winter. The small, cream, bell-shaped blossoms appear in 
early spring and are quite fragrant. Normally growing into a hedge 
6 to 12 feet. Requires little pruning and will thrive on almost any 
soil. Whether kept pruned or permitted to grow naturally, it is one 
California Privet (Ligustrum Ovalifolium) 
Upright in growth, dark, thick, almost evergreen foliage and one of 
the most popular hedge plants. Can be pruned easily and does not 
require clipping as often as the Chinese Privet and is somewhat 
hardier. 
Ibolium Privet (Ligustrum Ibolium) 
of our most useful shrubs to screen out objectionable views or to give 
privacy to your property. Plant 12 to 24 inches apart, depending on 
the density desired. Shorten back at least one-half after planting.

Fragrant Bush Honeysuckle 
This comparatively new Privet has proven hardy under the severe 
tests of the past few years. It has many characteristics of the Cali- 
fornia Privet though not as evergreen, and is as hardy as its other 
parent, the Ibota Privet. This superior Privet is a welcomed addi- 
tion since it can be grown and sold at the price of California Privet.
