POSSIBILITIES OF THE FENWAY. 



r-.\ .I'lliii 11. Ihlliiii. riiMiniKin of Rostoii 

 I';irk Mild Recreation Lieiiartmenl. 



The Back Bay Fens, for purposes of 

 embellishment, possess, from environ- 

 ment, the granijest pc^sibilities of any 

 equal amount of aorea.ge in our park 

 system. The windin.K lagoons are pic- 

 turesque and by a judicious decoration 

 of their borders with plants tliat flour- 

 ish near the water's fdge, and water 

 lilies floating on thfir surfaces, can 

 be made the finest water gardens in 

 this country. Take thf: tract that was 

 .ijiven over for the disjilay of plants 

 by the Society of American Floriats 



last summer and which attracted so 

 many people deeply interested in horti- 

 culture as an example of what may be 

 done for this section of our parks. 

 Boston has never had a rose garden, 

 a section devoted in its entirety to the 

 display of the queen of flowers, where 

 climbing, standard and other varieties 

 planted in groups and all correctly la- 

 beled would make a picture not easy 

 to forget and might be considered as 

 one of the features for the "sunken" 

 garden now under consideration. Its 

 banks can be planted with rhododen- 

 drons, kalmia, androniedas and azaleas 

 and again with lilacs, hawthorns. 



double flowering crabapple, peach or 

 cherry. With a background of trees, 

 further enhanced by the stately build- 

 ings of striking architecture already 

 constructed, its splendid avenues of 

 approach combine to make it ideal for 

 an additional horticultural asset to 

 Boston parks. The Forsyth Dental 

 College, the Art Museum, the Sim- 

 mons College, the Gardner palace and 

 many other splendid types of buildings 

 surround the Fens and instead of a 

 waste, this land should be embellished 

 in accord with those buildings and 

 made the finest exhibit to be found in 

 any park system in the world.
