In six short years, for years are short 

 when we come to reckon in nature's 

 terms, a country field and some three 

 acres of woodland have been transformed 

 into lovely sweeps of lawn and colorful 

 bloom — an effect very English in charac- 

 ter and yet, oddly enough, equally fitting 

 the Western landscape. A species of 

 Spiraea found all through the woods gave 

 "Arrow-wood" its name, and has, more- 

 over, adapted itself gracefully to garden 

 conditions in the r61e of background for 

 the perennial border 



Rose beds bordered with Violas and backed by stately, native Douglas Firs
