When larger wind-breaks are required, to resist the force of heavy and steady winds sweeping over the WINTER PROTECTION WINDMILL FINGER GRASS. See Chloris. WINDOW GARDENING. See House Plants. WINEBERRY. Bubus HA 2729. Wind-breaks running across the direction of the prevailing interior plains through mountain passes, the manna gum, Eucalyptus viminalis, is used with advantage; this species suffers much less from strong wind than the more tender blue gum, Eucalyptus Globulus, which is used for the same purpose iu the more equable climate of the Coast Range hills. Both the red gum, Eucalyptus rostrata,and theLombardypoplar, Populus nigra, var. Italica, are used iu the vineyard region near Fresno, to check the force of the periodic north-winds. Arundo Donax is also frequently grown around vine- yards, particularly in the immediate vicinity of water. The olive, European walnut, tig and almond are fre- quently planted for the outside row of an orchard of deciduous fruit trees, to act as a partial wind-break. Arundo Donax makes a charming shelter-hedge for a suburban garden, being light and graceful in appear- ance and not too exclusive, while answering all neces- sary purposes by providing a certain amount of privacy.
