Residence of Mrs. T^elson Perm, Stratford Road and Greenway, Guilford, Baltimore, Md, 



THIS dignified planting is particularly suited to this 

 stately grey stucco residence. It has been planted only a 

 trifle over two years but it gives the impression of much 

 greater age. 



The entrance on the Stratford Road side, planted with 

 two wonderful Boxwoods, needs nothing to add to its beauty, 

 while the 20-foot Cedars, grouped at the corners of the house, 

 give just the treatment which this attractive home requires. 

 With Ivy covering the walls, it will have mellowed to the 

 appearance of an old mansion within a few years. 



At the right corner are grouped Hybrid Rhododendrons, 

 whose mass of color in the spring is so attractive against a 

 heavy background, such as is here provided. This corner has 

 been made doubly effective by the use of Juniperus depressa 

 plumosa, tying in the planting and blending it satisfactorily 

 into the grass'line. 



The wall trellis, radiant with Roses in the summer, gives 

 the lighter note needed among the heavier tones of mass 

 planting after the Rhododendron blooms have gone. The 

 group of Junipers on the left closes off a perennial garden 

 which is a spectacle of beauty from early spring until late 

 fall, starting with the early bulbs and carrying through to the
