 DEN 



GAR- 



Here is a good example of a 

 garden treated in landscape 

 style. It is open to the side 

 street and has a winding path 

 leading from the side porch to 

 a circular resting place in the 

 back part of the garden. Beau- 

 tiful shrubs surround the gar- 

 den from three sides, the 

 fourth one being left open, pre- 

 senting a good vista from the 

 side street. Groups of shrubs, 

 cleverly arranged on either 

 side of the path leading to the 

 side porch and the kitchen en- 

 trance, hide the latter entirely. 

 Two specimens of tall conifer- 

 ous trees and several groups 

 of smaller ones, together with 

 a few choice shrubs, complete 

 the effective planting scheme 

 on the back lawn. The front 

 lawn being treated similarly, 

 has a few shrubs and a beau- 

 tiful coniferous tree near the 

 boundary to the left. A wide 

 approach, entering the place 

 from the corner between effec- 

 tive groupings of shrubs and 

 dwarf evergreens, leads in ele- 

 gant curves to the front porch. 

 For details about the planting 

 list, see pages 8 and 116.
