 GARDEN 



This plan shows a good ex- 

 ample of a garden treated 

 semi-formally. It has a cir- 

 cular lawn with evergreens and 

 standard roses planted along 

 the circumference and a formal 

 fountain placed in the center, 

 surrounded by a margin of 

 plants. A pergola occupies 

 the back-ground of the garden. 

 The irregular-shaped lawn at 

 the near end of the garden is 

 treated in French landscape 

 style with trees and shrubs 

 arranged in attractive groups 

 marking the junctions of paths. 

 A hedge of shrubs forms the 

 boundary on both sides, the 

 one on the right-hand side 

 serving as a screen to the ga- 

 rage and kitchen garden be- 

 yond. The planting on the 

 side of the house in front of 

 the porte-cochere is carried out
