NOW — everyone - 
can have Beautiful Home Grounds 
D ESIRE for beauty ill the grounds about one’s home is part of the home-loving instinct in 
human hearts. The soft greenery and color of growing plants and shrubs against the walls, soft¬ 
ening the straight lines of lot and house—-seem a sign of nature’s own approval of the senti¬ 
ment that builds a home. 
You, no doubt, have seen and enjoyed the loveliness of a home nestled in the beauty of well 
planted grounds—and thought and dreamed how you would like to give your home such a setting. 
Create 
an Outdoor 
Living Room 
You can add to the joy of liv¬ 
ing in your home, with an out¬ 
door living room—a garden spot 
amid the greenery and shade and 
colorful bloom of flowers—in 
which to entertain guests, or rest 
in evening hours. It is the vogue 
in modern home planning to add 
this feature of enjoyment. 
Planting Adds Value as Well 
as Beauty to Your Property 
of the building cost of a 
home, invested in Shrub¬ 
bery, Vines, Ornamental Trees and 
other ornamental stock for exterior 
yard and lawn decorations, it is con¬ 
ceded, increases the prop- 
erty value at least. 
The home that is attractive is not 
long upon the market, for rental or 
investment. So you see, planting not 
only adds to the joy of living but 
adds to the value of your property 
as well.
