LITTLE GARDENS 



A place in New Jersey has a broad walk 

 leading from the house toward a lovely wooded 

 and watered valley, this walk containing a chain 

 of flower-beds in the center, a border of lawn 

 on either side, with close-set cedars along their 

 boundaries, and hedges dividing the lawns from 

 the walk. 



Fig. 19. — A, Flower-beds ; B, potted cedars; C, planted 

 evergreens. 



In this case the lawns and walk create the 

 impression of a long reach toward the distance, 

 and they incorporate the scene into the grounds, 

 the m.ore readily as a downward slope at the 

 lower part of the yard conceals the end of the
