Descriptive catalogue of the Jewell Nursery Co . descriptivecatal1894jewe Year: 1894 green, especially adapted for ornamental hedges, cemetery use, etc. lieing of a dwarf habit, and of such a dark, beautiful green, it is the evergreen above ail others for low ornamental hedges, bor- ders, groups, etc., where heavy growth is not de- sired. No other evergreen can compare with it in color or density of growth. Two of the essentials of a first-class hedge plant. It can be sheared in any form desired, and when setas a hedge, forms one of the most attractive adjuncts tliat a lawn or yard can possess. It should be planted from a foot to eighteen inches apart, kept well cultivated and mulched till it is established. With the exception of an annual shearing, which should be done in the spring after the new growth has started, it will need no fur- ther care, and will give an attractiveness to a lawn or yard that can be produced in no other way. We all know how the addition of a neat hedge adds to the beauty of a home. Not only this, but it will add a cash value to any place, should tlie owner wish to sell. The Savin is the easiest of all evergreens to transplant. It has a mass of fibrous roots and will live under treatment tliat would kill other ever- greens. Not one in one hundred will fail to grow if properly handled. If you wish an ornamental hedge this is the plant to use. It is such a dense grower, being about as broad as it is high, that plants from 12 to 18 inches are the most desirable to set out. It is the evergreen par excellence for au ornamental hedge. Should be set in the spring, any time from the middle of April to the 15th of May. We have a large stock and offer first-class plants, 12 to 18 inches, for spring shipment only, at the following low rate: 25c each, $ per dozen, $ per 100. The Jewell Nursery Co., Lake City, Minn. (
