SUB-ALPINE MOUNDS AND PLANTS FOR THEM. 
One of the most interesting features in modern gardening is the development of a Sub-Alpine effect, which 
is produced bv throwing up mounds, and planting them with an Alpine vegetation, giving to the mounds various 
Whts and depressions such as are to be found in natural landscapes, choosing, when possible, a situation which 
admits of a perspective, and the planting should be such as to give a semi-wild appearance, embracing every tint 
of A Dine foliage and every variety of Alpine flower as is found in nature. Up the pseudo-mountam-side some of 
the pigmy firs may be planted, and, in the summer-time, Echevena metalhca, arborea, arborea purpurea, and 
other such massive-leaved or characteristic plants, and the whole of the intervening spaces covered with hardy 
A Dines which will remain uninjured during the severest winters. In planting graduate the shade of verdure as 
in nature, giving a snow white capping to the distant peaks with the silvery-foliaged Antennaria. These Alpine 
aspects are greatly enhanced if planted liberally all over with spring flowering bulbs, such as S-”- 
bifolia, Snowdrops, Crocus, dwarf Daffodils, Snowflakes, Fntillarias, Iris reticulata, and I. 1 
spring they appear as attractive as in summer.
