A SUBURBAN HOME H B)y^-i^ ^^uip^J^ 



Where Forest Trees Help 



The Landscape Gardener in drawing these plans 

 treated the whole lot as a park, but unfortunately the 

 back yard plantings do not show. Some people, how- 

 ever, prefer to have a vegetable garden in the back 

 yard which in this case would not alter the pleasing 

 appearance. 



The clumps of shrubs in the comers of the yard consisting 

 of two Thunbcrgii Barberries (2) (2), one Spirea Van Houttei 

 (5) and four Spirea Argutas (7) can be used almost any- 

 where. The Thunbergii Barberries at the front of the walk 

 (2) (2) are largely planted. 



The Tea's Weeping Mulberry at (17) is as good a speci- 

 men as can be placed in a small yard. They are interesting 

 and do not interfere with the view of the house or from the 

 window. If the walk is in the center of the yard as in this 

 case you will want two. 



The right hand foundation planting, seven Thunbergii Bar- 

 berry (2); three Van Houttei Spireas (6); four Thunbergii 

 Barberry (11); two Hydrangea P. G. (9) (9). 



On the left hand side the foundation planting consists of 

 « group of four Thunbergii Barberry (2) and (2) and three 

 Van Houttei Spireas (6). 



The clump dividing the front and rear yard consisting of 

 three Spirea Van Houttei (6), three Spirea Argutas (8) (8) 

 (8), and four Barberries (2) (2) is available for many places.
