91. Background Hedges
Avoid masses of plants with large evergreen leaves unless you are planting an acreage. A 6 ft/ 2 m hedge of laurel around a city lot creates the feeling of a prison from which there is no escape.

92. Shrubs For Edges

93. Fall Plantings
Pull out alternate plants to use the leaves, then use leaves from the larger plants leaving them to grow new centres and continue this way until warm spring weather when they will go to seed.

94. Fall Plantings
When too many outer leaves are on a single plant for quick use as salad, they should be cooked lightly in a pan with green peas or beans as another vegetable.

Otherwise, seedlings become lanky and weak before the first leaves are expanded. This means a poor root system, for food cannot be manufactured without the aid of expanded leaves.

97. Transplanting Seedlings
Most gardening books recommend pricking-out seedlings when "two true leaves have formed." This is much too late because the large root system which has formed is too easily damaged and the young plants suffer a severe setback.

98. How To Do It
Remove the leaves from the lower half of the cutting by placing the left thumbnail against the leaf petiole a fraction above the stem joint and pulling the leaf blade with the right hand over the thumbnail.

99. Suitable Stock Plants
The best cuttings have not flowered, nor have flower buds, and should have at least two joints with leaves and the growing tip, for an overall length of 3 to 4 in/7.

100. Layering
A long cane can be tip-layered by digging a small hole about 4 in/10 cm deep, filling it with the 50-50 sand-compost mixture, removing the leaves for the top 4 in/10 cm, and pressing the tip into the soil mixture, holding it with a pin.
