LANDSCAPE GARDENING. 



S? 



The beds near the house in 

 front are filled with low trail- 

 ing Evergreens, as Daphne 

 Cneorum, Juniperus Squam- 

 ata, Eepens, etc., while the 

 bed on the left of the foot- 

 path is planted with hardy 

 Perpetwal Eoses and tree 

 Peonias, keeping the flower- 

 garden proper up near the 

 house and immediately in 

 view of the drawing-room bay 

 window. As most of the land- 

 ing is at the rear hall door, 

 the turn-way is thrown in 

 there, and a hedge borders the 

 road on one side, separating 

 it from the fruit or vegetable 

 garden, barn, etc., beyond. 



The foregoing was designed 

 worked out, written upon and 

 published some years since, 

 but as the generality of the plan has met favor with many of 

 those who have enaployed me in my profession, I decide to 

 include it in this Work. 



The illustrations of trees in the plan "will give to any sensible 

 man an idea of what they are, while the text above tells of 

 where to plant flowering shrubs, and of course the flower garden 

 will be changed almost yearly by those who reside upon the 

 place
