OUR PRIZE-WINNING MODEL—MINIATURE HOME GROUNDS 
Awarded First Prize, Minnesota 
State Fair—1935. Designed and Built 
by Our Landscape Department. 
EXCERPT FROM EDITORIAL—Oct. 1, 
1935 
"THE AMERICAN NURSERYMAN" 
"This model, awarded first prize, was 
made to a scale of one inch to a foot on 
a total exhibit area of 8x10 feet. 
Landscape features of unusual interest 
were developed. The ground sloped to 
a lake at the lower left-hand corner with 
a boat house, diving board and live fish. 
Advantage was taken of the slopes to 
show rock outcrops which were planted 
with rock garden effect. 
On the level area surrounding the 
house a flower garden with summer¬ 
house, a service area and a clothes yard 
and garage were featured. 
All plantings, which were selected 
carefully for scale, were of growing ma¬ 
terial while miniature figures both of 
animals and humans enlivened the 
scene."
