Philadelphia. But I have not undertaken to divide 
them into classes in the list, as I have the material for 
the Greater Inclosures, for they were generally availa¬ 
ble, the same as the garden flowers and vegetables; and 
they were in general use as edgings in the old world. 
So it depended entirely upon the individual whether or 
no they were made use of here. They are therefore 
appropriate in an old-fashioned garden of any style.
