Do You Make the Best 
of Your Garden? 
If there are beautiful trees at one end of your 
garden, do you double their beauty by making 
a pool to mirror their slim reflections? 
Do you arrange dark evergreen backgrounds 
to set off the delicacy of your tall white flowers 
or the rare colors of your rhododendrons? 
Do you accent the long slope of your terraced 
lawns by a straight line of box hedge between 
them and the lake below? Do you make the 
most of every opportunity your garden gives 
you ? 
If there’s any part of your garden about which you 
want advice, from a sybaritic blue-tiled pool to the 
simplest flagged path that ever led to a rose-bed—write 
to us about it. The Information Service will put its 
mind to the subject and will not turn back till it has 
answered your questions to the very best of its ability. 
In the course of a day you probably think about a good 
many different things, but here in this office the only 
thing we ever think about except houses is gardens. 
And we’d like to think about yours awhile ! 
Whatever you don’t know, 
ask the House & Garden 
Information Service 
It is always ready to advise you about your house, 
inside or out, and about your garden, from the first 
spring raking to the final autumn bonfire. Or to help 
you with any plans for one, whether they’re the sort 
that needs a landscape architect or nothing more im¬ 
posing than a pencil and paper.
