162 PLANS OF BESIDE yCES 



A, A. Two Scamston elms (planted two feet from fence and walk) 



grafted on straight stocks eight feet from the ground, to form 

 a tabular topped arch over the gateway, by interweaving the 

 side branches which are nearest to each other. These grow 

 so rapidly that all the space within ten feet from the centre 

 of the gate will in six years be deeply shaded by them, so 

 that only those plants which are known to flourish in deep 

 shade should be planted near the gate. Among these the 

 English ivy may occupy the same place in the corner as 

 before. 



B. May be the Cephalotaxus fortunii masciila, or purple magnolia. 



C, C (nearest the gate). Daphne cneoruni. C, C (near the ve- 



randa). Should be Irish juniper as in the first plan, and the 

 space marked fuschias to be filled as before recommended ; 

 C on left-hand front of lot to be an Irish or Swedish 

 juniper. 



D. Box-wood, spurge laurel, hypericum, purple magnolia, or 

 rhododendrons. 



E (middle group). Androtneda arborea, or, south of Philadelphia, 

 the Indian catalpa, C. himalayensis. 



F, F. Spirea reevesii flore plena and Spirca fortunii alba. G (of 

 same group). Spirea Van Hoiitti. In the spaces between G 

 and F the Deutzia gracilis and the Androtneda jJorihinda may 

 be planted within two feet of the stem of the Andromeda 

 arborea. 



H (in left-hand corner). Two deutzias, the white and red, D. 

 crenaia alba and D. crenata rubra flore plena., planted side by 

 side. The other H's to be hemlocks as in the other plan. 



I, I, I, I. Tree-box on left of walk, Siberian arbor-vit£e on the 

 right.
