THE BLOSSOM CIRCLE OF THE YEAR 



in sunshiny situations. They are worth while wherever and 

 whenever seen. 



October is truly the between-time in our gardens. The bor- 

 ders are still filled with blossoms bright and flowers gay, the 

 Summer vegetables are not yet over, the seed beds are filled with 

 plants waiting to be put out and yet all one can do is to wait. 

 Fortunately, the best scheme for the garden maker is the same 

 as the best scheme of life: do each day the duty that lies nearest, 

 enjoy to the full the beauty and fragrance of each one of the 

 passing hours and flowers, and living in the happy present, the 

 future will take care of itself.

 South cannot enjoy Sweet Peas ?
