HEMLOCK HEDGE 
Tsuga Canadensis (Northern Hemlock). 60 ft. Zone Il. In forests, a 
majestic patriarch, but readily sheared to hedge or modest specimen sizes. 
Humus. Stands shade. The most beaufiful native evergreen. 
Hemlock Hedge when properly 
sheared gives a fine, even, 
smooth dark green surface unlike 
any other hedge. Thrives in 
soils ranging from ordinary to 
damp, and from full sun to ful 
shade, hence is easy to grow. 
Set plants 1% feet apart. 
Many plants can 
be made into 
hedges, including 
Privets and bar- 
berry (priced on 
page 11) but 
Hemlock and Yew 
are far the best 
of all. The XX 
sizes of hemlock 
can be put in 
hedge row — 
smaller should be 
bedded two years 
first.

For any and every purpose in which 
Evergreens are required the Yew can 
be recommended. Hardy in New Eng- 
land and Ontario, immune to most 
diseases and pests. Accommodating to 
an extraordinary degree, withstand- 
ing shade or full sunshine. 
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 six. (100) (1000)
