CALIFOKNIA GARDENS 



NO. 14. ROSE GARDEN 



Nothing in nature is more beautiful 

 than roses. Their beauty of form, their 

 glorious colors, and their fragrance en- 

 dear them to all, and a garden devoted 

 entirely to the cultivation of these ex- 

 quisite flowers will be a source of un- 

 ending pleasure. This plan shows a 

 beautiful rose garden in which a series 

 of rose arches, connected by side pieces, 

 form a semi-circle enclosing the garden 

 on three sides. Back of this semi-circle 

 and forming part of it are two rose 

 arbors. The background is screened 

 with beautiful shrubbery and hides the 

 little vegetable garden beyond. In the 

 middle of the garden is a round bed on 

 which stands a sun-dial. Back of the 

 bungalow are groups of shrubbery with 

 a garden seat in the center. Opposite 

 the seat is a short walk, which leads 

 through a rose arch to the circular path 

 bordered by standard roses. The front 

 is open to the street, the lawn being con- 

 tinuous with the neighboring gardens. 

 Groups of choice flowering shrubs are 

 planted around the porch and along the 

 path leading to the back garden. On 

 either side of the bungalow the lot is 

 enclosed by an evergreen hedge and a 

 flower border runs along the south side 

 of the dwelling. For details about the 

 planting list, see pages 8 and 116.
