the length of the border, the Chimney Bell flower, both the blue 

 and the white for late blooms ; it is called Campanula pyrami- 

 dalis and grows to five feet. Again, at different points, bulbs of 

 Lilium auratum (Gold Band Lily of Japan) for early lilies, and 

 Lilium speciosum Alba for late lilies. The golden note all the 

 length of the border in small masses could be of Golden Day lilies 

 (variety Thunbergii) and clumps of Columbine of the following va- 

 rieties : Golden Chrysantha, Munstead Giant White, Caerulea, Pale 

 Blue, groups of blue and of white Platycodon tall and Platycodon 

 dwarf, and Japanese Iris, blue, pale blue and gray blue, and blue 

 and white and gold German Iris. Clumps of White and Blue 

 Carpathian harebells and a border of Violas cornuta. White and 

 Gold and Blue. Here and there border masses of ever-blooming 

 Forget-me-nots and Alyssum saxatile (gold). Every variety in 

 this border would be of value, because when not in flower the 

 foliage of each is attractive and flowers in abundance would 

 be here all Spring, Summer and Autumn. In the Spring plant 

 Clematis henryi (white) and Romano (old blue) here and there 

 to creep along the top and over the red brick wall. — ^ ^
