A NICE GITY HOME 



With Inexpensive Planting 



This style of planting for a city residential street 

 is within the means of anyone, adds greatly to the 

 value of the property, and the cost is very low. See 

 what we can do for you. 



The porch, which is the out door home of the family dur- 

 ing the summer, is also the chief ])oint of interest when prop- 

 erly planted as this one is, with sixteen Thunbergii Barberry 

 at (2) and (5), two Hydrangea I'. G. at the steps' ends (3) 

 (4), a Spirea Thunbergii at (6) and a Spirea Van Houttei at 

 (7), with a Scarlet Trumpet Honeysuckle or Clematis Pani- 

 culata for afternoon shade (1). 



On the left side is shown a lawn background corner that 

 is available very many places, a Persian Lilac or a Smoke Tree 

 at (7), surrounded by four Hydrangea P. G. grouped in front 

 at (10). This makes a splendid combination because the 

 Lilac or Smoke Tree will bloom early in the summer and the 

 Hydrangea about the last (lower of the fall. 



On the right hand side of the house the Gardener has placed 

 an interesting group of Persian Lilac and three Spirea Van 

 Houttei (9). 



A. bed of Funkia, Day Lilies, are often used for a narrow 

 foundation covering as indicated at (11) where shrubs would 

 grow too large. These can be furnished in sufTicient quantity 

 to make a good bed the second year.
