A Colony of Hardy Candytufts 
Our illustration below, of hardy Candytuft (Iberis), 
luxuriating in one of nature’s rock gardens, not only 
indicates the value of these plants for rockeries, but also 
conveys a suggestion of how natural advantages may 
often be improved upon. Could anything be more 
charmingly picturesque than this wealth of bright blos- 
soms contrasting so vividly against the somber sur- 
roundings? Are there not some situations on your grounds 
adaptable for little "Surprise Gardens” like this?

PICTURESQUE GARDENS 
Rockery and Pools — A Charming Effect 
This bold rock garden topped by shrubbery, weeping and deciduous trees, all 
reflected in the rock-edged stream, presents a happy composition of nature’s charms.
