ROOF-GABDENING 



friend who is interested in the work. A garden 

 has been started this year — part of a complete 

 and comprehensive plan; and the new green- 

 house, recently constructed, will afford students 

 and children the practical experience that is so 

 necessary for successful work. 



Roof-gardens are practicable, and should be 

 considered a necessary part of the construction 

 of every city school. As the plants are exposed 

 to the sun, use such hardy plants as Geraniums, 



Boys' Roof-Playground, Public School 126, Brooklyn, 

 sibilities for Roof-Gardening.
