of the extreme value of personal effort combined with knowledge and 

 good taste. 



These qualities may operate in different gardens in a hundred varying 

 ways, but where they exist there will be, in some form or other, a 

 delightful garden. Endless are the possibilities of beautiful combinations 

 of flowers ; just as endless is their power of giving happiness and the very 

 purest of human delight. So also the special interest of different gardens 

 that are personally directed by owners of knowledge and fine taste would 

 seem to be endless too, for each will impress upon it some visible issue of 

 his own perception or discernment of beauty. 



About the house and lawns are other beds and borders of herbaceous 

 flowers of good grouping and fine growth ; conspicuous among them is 

 that excellent flower Campanula pyratnidalis, splendidly grown. 



Though Blyborough is in a cold district, it has the advantage of 

 lying well sheltered below a sharply-rising ridge of higher land.
