rjiHIS is exactly the same portion of the 

 ± garden as is shown in Plate No. 3 (April 

 28th). The little Crabapple then filling the pic- 

 ture with its delicate flowering is now quite 

 secondary, yet creates with the fresh green of the 

 Baptisia bushes on the left a pleasant back- 

 ground for the soft-coloured Iris Queen of May 

 in the foreground. The gray foliage of Lyme 

 Grass is now added to the group; and a little back, 

 against the garden wall, the white rugosa Rose 

 Madame Georges Bruant with its companion 

 groups of Lemon Lilies and pale yellow Iris 

 Canary Bird comes agreeably within the same 

 vision-scope. 



Still another grouping upon this same spot 

 is shown in Plate No. 13 (July 1st).
