CONVENTION GARDEN 



GUIDE TO THE EXHIBITS 



TiE accompanying map, corrected up to July 

 13 th, shows the location of the various exhibits 

 up to that date. 



The circle contingent to the space for the tent is to 

 be planted by the Park and Recreation Department, 

 to represent the seal of the City of Boston. Also, 

 in the centre, a coat of arms of the United States, 

 elaborately worked out showing the red and white 

 stripes and blue field with thirteen stars representing the thirteen 

 original states. This is flanked on both sides by a leaf represent- 

 ing the emblem of the Society of American Florists. 



A rose covered arbor on the planting area leading 

 on to a rustic bridge which curves in and out, ends 

 at a Japanese tea house. The bay between the bridge 

 and shore is to be planted with water lilies and other 

 aquatic plants, all to have a Japanese effect. 



All the beds that have been listed have been con- 

 structed. Beds which have no numbers had not 

 been engaged at the time of going to press, and if 

 not taken otherwise, will be planted by the Park and Recreation 

 Department of the City of Boston. Some beds are planted by 

 two exhibitors and are listed, for example, as 5a and 5b.
