House & Garden 
Along two sides runs a paved gallery 
with comfortable chairs set along the 
walls, old pottery jars with flowers oji 
the garden edge and others hung up, 
from which vines trail down gracefully 
through the air. 1 he broad gallery is 
a cool spot on torrid days 
There is a rough naturalness to the 
flowers and creepers in the patio itself. 
Growing abundantly, they clamber up 
the pots to the second gallery and spill 
out of garden vases set along the bor¬ 
der ajid mass in corners where color 
and shade are required 
Midway down the brick path is a vine- 
covered bower, a shaded spot harboring 
a garden seat and its quota of potted 
plants
