PLANTING PLAN

PLANTING PLAN "A" FOR TWO HOUSES ADJOINING 

 On this plan, representing a 

 width of 80 ft. by a depth of 

 200 ft. stand two semi-detached 

 houses. 



The entire boundary is arranged 

 in plantations of shrubbery and are 

 of such varieties as will give a se- 

 quence of bloom from early Spring 

 until late Fall, followed by a little 

 interest of color in the berry bear- 

 ing plants, such as the Barberry, 

 Coral Berry, Snowberry and 

 Cotoneaster. 



The perennials are placed along 

 the base of the house, and the 

 varieties suggested, while limited, 

 will provide a goodly quantity of 

 cut flowers for table decoration. 



The front lawns may be treated 

 as one lawn to advantage by omit- 

 ting numbers 21 and 29, while the 

 rear, for reasons of privacy, is 

 better enclosed by the shrub 

 borders. 



A small vegetable garden is 

 placed at the rear, separated by a 

 hedge, which will also form a back- 

 ground to the plantations in front 

 of it. 



Between the rear lawn and the 

 vegetable garden a small arbor is 

 suggested in which seats may be 

 placed at the sides. 



Either climbing Roses, Clematis 

 or annual vines should be planted 

 as the decoration for the arbor. 



For laundry purposes a movable 

 drier is indicated in the center of 

 the grass plot. This is easily put up 

 and taken down as occasion may 

 require, and is infinitely better 

 than the unsightly posts.
