CALIFORNIA GARDENS 



NO. 40 FORMAL GAR- 

 DEN 



Here is a wonderfully 

 beautiful garden o'f an un- 

 usual design. It has a cir- 

 cular pergola, enclosing a 

 lawn with a lily-pond 

 placed in its center and 

 box-bordered beds, plant- 

 ed with brilliantly flower- 

 ing perennials, arranged 

 in front of it. Beautiful 

 roses and vines cover the 

 pergola entirely, making 

 it a fragrant and pleasant 

 retreat on hot summer 

 days. A thick evergreen 

 hedge, at least five feet 

 high, encloses the garden 

 on three sides, giving it 

 shelter and privacy. A 

 drive enters the grounds 

 from the front at the lefV 

 hand corner, and passing 

 under a porte-cochere, 

 leads to the garage in the 

 enclosed service yard. The 

 space beyond the garage 

 is reserved for five fruit 

 trees and a few vege- 

 tables. The planting in 



the front consists of several choice evergreens and groups of shrubs along 

 the boundary and near the sides of the bungalow. For details about the 

 planting list, see pages 8 and 116.
