Have You ‘‘So Little 
Courage”—and Big 
Hopes? 
. . We are on a short, tucked-away 
street, with many fine old forest trees 
about. Across from us is a wooded hill 
which belongs to a beautiful estate. In 
the rear of our lot are unsightly back 
yards. My idea in general is to inclose 
our place, shutting out all that is ugly and 
retaining only the woodsy atmosphere. 
... I am such a novice and have so little 
courage, Vd like to put myself absolutely 
in your hands. I know I want seclusion, 
evergreen trees, fruit trees, perennials in 
rose and blue and orange and—how can 
I achieve all this on a lot 50 by 178 feet!” 
T hat letter planned and wailed and hoped 
itself through two double pages of notepaper. 
It inclosed photographs and rough sketches and 
prices and — we answered it with three large 
pages of single-spaced typewriting. The treatment of 
the clay soil, the use of broad-leaved evergreens to 
give that feeling of seclusion, suggestions as to dwarf 
trees, and then those perennials from poets’ narcissus 
to cardinal flowers — with Japanese barberry and 
Deutzia Gracilis around the kitchen entrance and 
Virginia creeper scrambling over the rocks at either 
side of the driveway. Altogether we gave our friend 
on the tucked-away street a working plan for years to 
come, and - 
That mayn’t be what you’d like at all. Your feeling 
may be all for glazed chintzes, or white sundials, or 
reed furniture,—or playhouses for the next generation 
of House & Garden readers. Whatever your question 
is — we won’t promise to answer it ourselves; but we 
will turn it over to someone who can. And it will 
cost you nothing but the trouble of writing.
