This is the coming hedge plant for defensive as well as ornamental purposes, far more desirable than Osage Orange. It is hardy as far north as New Jersey, and if planted in good soil an impenetrable hedge can be had three years from planting. Requires but little trimming after the third year. So far it has been free from insect depredations. In early spring, when covered with myriads of white flowers, nothing is more attractive, and while not an evergreen, the vivid green wood makes it appear bright during the winter. Plants may be set 2 feet apart. Cydonia Japonica (JAPAN QUINCE) A most desirable deciduous hedge plant. The flowers vary from red to several shades of pink, ap- pearing early in the spring, before the leaves start into growth. Strong 3-yr. plants, $10 per 100. Ligustrum Amurense (AMOOR RIVER PRrVET) Strong plants, $4 per 100, $30 per 1,000. Our hedges of this desirable evergreen have for years past been noted for their perfect shape and ap- pearance. It far surpasses the variety cultivated in northern sections under the name of California Privet (Ligustrum ovalifolium), which assumes a dingy green tint in winter, whereas the Amoor Privet retains its brighter green color throughout the entire year. We have cultivated this plant since 1S66, and during that time have propagated and sold immense quan- tities for planting hedges, which are now to be found in every section of the southern states. It has stood a cold of 20 degrees below zero in western No
