LAWNS AND THEIR EMBELLISHMENT

Sunken Garden Bedding 
Above is an elegantly arranged 
sunken formal garden. The ter- 
race surrounding and connecting 
it with the open lawn forms a 
rich, frame -like background for 
the beautiful setting of colored 
foliage and flowering plants, white 
gravel walks, etc. The plants in 
the vases are Agaves. The fol- 
lowing plants could be used to 
duplicate the bedding: Gera- 
niums, Coleus, Achyranthes, 
Ageratums, Salvias, Begonia Ver- 
non, Acalypha, etc. 
The Central Park Fountain 
Below we illustrate the much-admired fountain in 
Central Park, New York City. This fountain is not 
only very large, but it is beautifully situated at the 
head of the lakes and at the base of the terrace stair- 
way. The immense basin is rendered very attractive 
during the summer, being then well furnished with 
choice varieties of Water Lilies and other aquatics.
