OUR office at the corner of York and Hillside Roads is built 

 from the warm-colored stone native to this district, and 

 looks out upon the Show Garden we have developed beside it. 

 The congenial architecture of the building provides a fitting 

 background against which to display fine plants in their 

 proper setting. Thus a visitor can see better at a glance 

 how such plants would look on his own grounds than he 

 could from a bewildering trip over the nursery fields. 



Around the main entrance from York Road, which is shown 

 in the smaller picture on this page, we have grouped Hybrid 

 Rhododendrons and other suitable plants to form a fine ex- 

 ample of what a foundation 

 or small group-planting 

 should be. Mingled Junipers 

 and Yews give it an air of 

 permanence, and provide a 

 suitable foil for the spray- 

 like bloom of Andromeda 

 japonica. The single Cedar 

 harmonises the planting 

 with the building and the 

 tall columnar evergreens 

 around the corner.
