Villa Gardens 37 



Example i. 



This is a type of garden very commonly 

 annexed to the semi-detached suburban villa. 

 The ground falls slightly towards the west, hence 

 the retaining board at foot of the east border. 



The curtailed angle at the end i-s unfortunate, 

 but its unsightliness is masked by the summer- 

 house. The single tree on the grass may be a 

 Thorn or Rose Acacia. 



The climber on the arch might be a Wistaria. 



A shrub should cover the small wedge-shaped 

 space on the west of the summer-house. The 

 structure marked verandah is a low shed, with 

 open front and raised floor, a pleasant shady 

 spot where one may sit and look out over the 

 flowers. It may be made to support a Honey- 

 suckle or Yellow Jasmine. The garden is 

 entered from the conservatory through the side 

 yard, which is screened from the garden proper 

 by trellis.
