lighter both in color and character (especially 

 in front), as well as softer in tone. In such 

 a place the light pink shades produce the 

 happiest results. 



Geraniums may be obtained in several 

 heights (when mature), and a charming effect 

 along a drive may be obtained by banking, 

 that is, planting a low growing one (white, 

 perhaps) next the road, back of this a light 

 pink of medium growth, and in the back- 

 ground a rank growing, deeper pink. Such

 (hat it is a neglected plant. As a heavy mass around 

 the base of a building cr a palm trunK it is very 

 effective. It is always in flower and will rnaKe a 

 hedge five feel high that need not be replanted for 

 five years 



a plantation makes a good appearance at all 

 seasons, with a minimum of care. Not only 

 is it economical in the small amount of care 

 required, but the effect is enduring, as it will 

 not require replanting for many years.

How I Made a Sweetbrier 

 Hedge from Seed 



IN the fall of 1903 I planted out of doors 

 the seeds of about half a dozen hips of 

 sweetbrier, and in the following spring I 

 transplanted from the seed bed to nursery 

 rows about one hundred small plants. These 

 were given good care and by the end of the 

 season most of them were bushes of a good 

 size, and some with growths about four feet 

 long. About two weeks ago these were 

 transplanted from the nursery rows, each 

 being carefully lifted with a good clod of 

 earth to the place for the hedge, where, 

 after being well pruned back, they all now 

 look fresh, and some are already showing an 

 increase in their young growths. They were 

 well leaved out when transplanted.
