BEAUTIFUL GARDENS IN AMERICA 



clipped forms, Barberry with its bright winter berries, 

 Laurel, and Rhododendron foliage unite to enliven the 

 winter scene in this pleasant space, when outside all is 

 gray and lifeless. 



Mrs. Seabrook's garden belongs to still another dis- 

 tinctly different class, illustrating a planting which appeals 

 strongly to the many Americans who ardently admire sim- 

 plicity in outdoor art. Here we find a sweet place in which 

 to live in idle hours, with favorite flowers well-kept, a pool, 

 and shaded retreats from summer sun.
