72 ROCK GARDENING 



Haven't you a bit of rocky land that contains some dramatic 

 feature? A spring, a brook, a dripping well? Why not develop a 

 small piece along these lines? And why not have a comprehensive 

 plan for all your rocky land?* 



There are a great many English books containing coloured plates of the flowers of the Alps, and many on 

 rock gardening. Perhaps Robinson's "Alpine Flowers" is as good as any on cultivation. We have no American 

 book on rock gardening. Tourists will enjoy Henshaw's "Mountain Wild Flowers in America" and Brown's "Alpine 

 Flora of the Canadian Rocky Mountains." Students must patiently search out our loveliest mountain flowers with 

 the aid of Britton and Brown, Gray, and Coulter and Nelson's "New Manual of Rocky Mountain Botany."
