82 EVERYTHING FOR THE GARDEN— Flower Seeds 



THE ILLUSTRATIONS 



ON THIS PAGE 



E. A snapshot of a flower garden, grown from our 

 seeds, from far-away Wilcox, Saskatchewan, sent 

 to us by Mrs. St. John. This shows a very charming 

 arrangement for a small garden, helped very much 

 by the lattice work arches providing two entrances. 

 All the lattice work is covered by perennial climber's, 

 including Aristolochia or Dutchman's Pipe, Clematis 

 and Lathyrus or Perennial Sweet Pea. The garden 

 walks are made of old flagstones, with small rock gar- 

 den plants growing between, such as Saxifraga, Ceras- 

 tium, Arabis, etc. The bed in the center is Heliotrope 

 surrounded by Sweet Alyssum. On the left is a group 

 of Lavatera. In the rear of the Sundial are two wire 

 cylinders on which Sweet Peas are growing, a new 

 way of growing them. Other plants are Hollyhock, 

 Petunia, Dianthus, and Hardy Pinks. A very beauti- 

 ful little flower garden. 



F. Is a photo of a path and a doorway in a brick Wall. 

 Over the doorway climbs the famous rose Dr. Van 

 Fleet introduced by us. At the right is an immense 

 group of Tree Hydrangea, in front Digitalis or Fox- 

 glove, four varieties of Sweet William, Campanulas, 

 Coreopsis, Stocks, Hemorocallis, Gaillardia, etc. 

 There is much the same display on the other side of 

 the path. When Perennial borders like this are 

 planted, it is best to plant plenty of Annuals between 

 the plants the first year or two until the Perennials 

 attain their normal size. 



O. Flower borders for a brick garden path. The 

 white flower border next to the bricks is Sweet Alys- 

 sum backed by different varieties of Zinnia. A very 

 colorful and brilliant arrangement.
