	Hedge (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		There are some indicators of a relic hedge: woodland plants such as Foxglove and the comparatively rare shrub, Spindle, are initial clues of the remnants of an ancient wood.
		Hedges were developed by using a limited number of species of shrubs and trees, and as the hedge ages, more varieties of shrubs and trees seed in naturally.
		The age of a hedge is calculated by counting the number of shrubs and trees in 30 meter lengths within a given area, minus 3, times 100.

		It is a tree-like shrub 6 to 10 feet tall and bears pink to fuschia fruits which are larger and more showy than those of the winged spindle tree.
		The strong horizontal habit makes this species an excellent foundation plant for screening and massing and, because it can withstand severe pruning, it is often used as a hedge plant.
		Although the brilliant fall coloring has meant that the winged spindle tree is often overused in landscaping, it does create excellent color, especially when reflected in water.

		The winged spindle tree is from China, but the hard, fine-grained wood of another Euonymus species was once used in Europe for making spindles.
		Because of the plant's naturally neat growth habit, it is ideal as a low-maintenance specimen plant, whether it is standing alone as the centerpiece of the lawn, nestled into a large planting bed along with flowers and other shrubs, or grown as a clipped hedge.
		Burning bush is a pleasing shrub even in seasons when it's not "on fire." The plant actually bears quite a pretty fruit, a red capsule that parts to expose an orange-red seed.
