of the year when blossom is scarce or absent altogether. It 
is best to use only a few large rocks, placed in key positions 
and smaller stones throughout the rest of the garden. No 
strict rules can be given, as each site presents its own par¬ 
ticular problem. The wisest plan is to consult a specialist, 
one nearby if there be one available, however, many 
amateurs derive untold pleasure and satisfaction in build¬ 
ing and designing their own gardens and planting as many 
interesting plants therein, as they are able to secure. Such 
gardens, although exceedingly interesting are quite different 
from more formal gardens in which artistic design is the 
main objective. Simplicity is the essence of a good garden 
and follow the cultural requirements mentioned elsewhere 
in this catalogue. 
We are fortunate in being associated with specialists in 
garden design and landscape architecture and can supply 
our customers with expert advise free of charge. We can 
also provide at a minimum cost, plans, designs and esti¬ 
mates for landscape planting, the construction of gardens, 
or the remodeling of old ones.
