The Flower Garden. 
climbing roses, such as the Ayrshire, evergreen and Polyantha, and vigorous 
growing trees, also with honeysuckles, clematises, as, C. Jackmdnni ., C. mon- 
tana , C. flammula, Jasminnm officinale , /. nudiflorum, Passiflora ccerulea , &c., 
they will form a delightful cool promenade in summer. But pergolas, 
like arches, should 
never be an ob¬ 
structive feature in 
the garden. A 
path leading from 
the side or end 
of the foreground 
to another portion 
used for green¬ 
houses or vegetable 
culture is the proper 
place for them. 
For a smaller 
garden, combining 
the advantages of 
the preceding plan, 
the following de¬ 
sign, on page 190, 
is commended. It 
represents a garden 
a quarter of an 
acre in extent, and 
the ground is ar¬ 
ranged in such a 
manner as to per¬ 
mit, not only vege¬ 
tables, fruit, and 
flowers to be 
grown, but also the erection of one or more greenhouses. The aspect of the 
ground, indicated in the plan, is south-south-west, this being the best 
position for a house and garden. With a wall on the east side the garden is 
effectually sheltered from east and north winds, and it gets the full benefit 
of the sun the whole time it is above the horizon.
