A Bungalow Adorned 
The Value of Mass Planting 
Although this bungalow is well massed in shrub- 
bery which fully doubles its pleasure value, the 
planting is comparatively simple. 
The foundation planting around the front of the 
plazza is a row of five Spirea Van Houttei with four 
more for the corner mass. If the walls are brick 
two Boston Ivy as shown in the picture will add much 
to the effect. 
At the street the landscape gardener has planted a Jap- 
anese Barberry hedge (5), eighteen inches apart, and a 
clump of five Snowberries or Indian Currants at the en- 
trance walk (6). 
On the right hand side of the entrance two clumps of the 
Snowberry (6) are used, with the Barberry hedge connecting 
them. 
To make a good division clump on a narrow strip of lawn 
the design at the right of the house is a good one. Two Koses 
of Sharon (4) are met by a group of eight Indian Currants. 
For the corner ornament to the extreme left the designer 
of the planting placed a group of five Rhodotypos or White 
Kerria (8) supported on the-»right by the Barberry and back 
along the line with a very interesting group of five Tamarix.
