A LANDSCAPE PLAN FOR A COMPLETE PLACE 
This is the fourth and last in the series of possible developments of a subur- 
ban plot one hundred by one hundred and twenty-five feet in size. To 
present here general suggestions is all that has been attempted; and it is 
proposed that these layouts be studied with this in mind, rather than with 
a view to taking them literally. 
N APPROACH lengthened by making it 
wind between the trees distinguishes this 
scheme, the banks of shrubbery concealing 
it from the rest of the place and making 
the surprise of flower and rose garden more com- 
plete. The general effect planned is that of a 
wooded plot. At the rear (north side) of the house 
is a shady garden where all the things that prefer to 
be out of the sunlight may be grown. Beyond this 
and close against the wall or 
fence which marks the rear 
boundary are fruit trees. 
The vegetable garden is set 
apart with a trellis of Grapes 
and small fruits along the side, 
and a lower trellis of Climbing 
Roses at the end between it 
and the little flower garden. 
The latter combines borders 
of perennials with inner beds 
of H. T. and H. P. Roses, the 
whole centering on a stone 
fountain and bird bath. And 
to complete this scheme for 
bird entertainment a bird 
house tops a lofty post half 
concealed in the midst of 
the evergreen shrubbery that 
hides the driveway. 
The position of the house 
in this scheme throws the 
greater space in front cf it 
instead of at one side or the 
rear; to decide which arrange- 
ment will be best for a given 
place of course requires con- 
sideration of all of theelements 
that enter into not only the 
place itself but its surroundings.
