PLATES No. 3 (April 28th) and No. 7 

 (May 21st) have shown the earlier dis- 

 plays offered by this bit of ground and now we 

 have this happy arrangement of Yellow Meadow- 

 rue (Thalictrum glaucum), Delphinium, and 

 Lyme Grass against the fading pink Rose Mrs. 

 R. W. Flight that festoons the arbour. 



Between the clumps of Meadow-rue are planted 

 a few roots of the pinkish Michaelmas Daisy 

 Novelty, which, in October, adds its heads of 

 heath-like blossoms to the setting of soft gray 

 foliage. 



This pleasant picture lasts well into Novem- 

 ber and is the more precious as the brighter 

 colours of the garden give way before the frost.
