A COLONIAL HOUSE 



Made Modern 



This house may have been built a hundred years 

 ago — it does not matter as to the style of architec- 

 ture used, each and every one can be made more 

 beautiful by the proper ornamental planting. 



To the right of the entrance of the Colonial house is a 

 Tery pleasing combination of plants that could be used to 

 good advantage in many places. At (9) three Buddleia But- 

 terfly Bushes have been placed. This plant has a beautiful 

 lUac-like bloom from July to September. At (10) are six 

 L«moine'g Deutzia, a shrub with white flower panicles; six 

 Spirea Van Houttei are placed at the corner (H). This is 

 one of the most beautiful shrubs and very largely grown. 

 Near the corner of the house (12) is a Clematis, Jackmanni, 

 •n attractive vine with brilliant flowers. 



To the left of the entrance the designer of this planting 

 has placed three Buddleia Butterfly Bushes (1), six Lemoine's 

 Deutzia (2), seven Lemoine's Deutzia (3). Three of the 

 fragrant blooming Common Lilacs are placed in the recess 

 made by the sun parlor (4). 



The attractive Purple Fringe or Smoke Tree (5) makes a 

 beautiful central point of interest to the planting. Seven 

 Japanese Barberries, a shrub which is very extensively used 

 in landscape work, are planted at (6). The back comer plant- 

 ing is formed with five Spirea Van Houttei (7), and five Iris 

 •nd five Hardy Phlox «t (8).
