MULTIFLORA ROSE mu A dee dl 
For Farm Fence or Garden Hedge 
Multiflora Roses grow quickly 
into thick, impenetrable, blossom- 
ing hedges that form effective bar- 
riers to livestock and people. The 
mature hedges are 6 to 8’ high and 
5 to 7’ wide. On the farm they are 
easier and cheaper to establish 
than wire fences and require no 
maintenance. Foliage is rich, rest- 
ful green and covered by a mass of 
white flowers in late spring. Does 
not sucker. Effectively confines 
cattle in 3 years and in another 2 
to 3 years ‘will even turn a razor- 
back hog.” 
Set plants 12” apart for farm 
fences (6” for hogs) and 18” apart
