286 COMMON SENSE GARDENS 



in this position instead of a Box, the bed should be 

 turfed over, rounded up a little and made into a 

 sort of mound. Do not place a sundial in a flower 

 bed, for the flowers will be trampled down and 

 destroyed by people trying to reach it, and it will 

 also have the appearance of a useless garden orna- 

 ment, which should not find a place in a garden of 

 this sort.
