Planting the Deciduous Trees and Shrubs 
(Continued from page 39) 
creamy white syringas or mock orange 
in combination with the vivid orange 
of Lilium elegans; in July white elder 
blossoms with pink wild roses; in Sep¬ 
tember snowberries against the blue- 
green of fresh young cedars, or the pea¬ 
like flowers of the purple Lespedezia 
with a creamy mantle of Clematis pan- 
iculata; in late autumn the black fruit 
of the common privet contrasted with 
the glowing red berries of the high bush 
cranberry; and in the wintry landscape 
the violet-brown of the alder mingled 
with the dull red of the osiers. 
For planting under the shade of trees 
already established, shrubs of proved 
excellence are Philadelphus, clethra, 
Regel’s privet, Cornus stolonifera, Vi¬ 
burnum dentatum, witch hazel, choke- 
berry, both red and black, Calycanthus 
floridus, Rubus odoratus and Azalea 
viscosa and nudiflora. 
For an early growth in the spring 
choose loniceras and exochorda; for 
brilliant autumn red give preference to 
the sumacs, Japanese barberry, Evony- 
mus alatus, sweet gum and red maple; 
for hot, dry places use coral berry, 
Rosa rugosa, bayberry, fragrant sumac, 
witch hazel, beach plum, and Scotch 
broom; for boggy or peaty situations 
free from lime use Ilex verticillata, 
chokeberry, button-bush, alders, red 
birch, red maples and sour gum; for 
quick screens plant Lombardy poplars 
end laurel-leaved willow; for early 
flowers before the leaves, use Cornus 
mas, Magnolia stellata, Judas tree or 
Azalea vaseyi; for flowers in late sum¬ 
mer, when blooms are rare, use Al¬ 
theas in pure white varieties, clethra, 
hypericum, and potentilla; and for 
fruit persistent long into the winter, use 
Ilex verticiliata, barberries, privets, 
Rosa multiflora and high bush cran¬ 
berry. 
And since now is the season for fall 
planting, take advantage of that fact, 
and set out the trees or shrubs as soon 
as the wood has matured and the foli¬ 
age begun to fall. Water well, partic¬ 
ularly if the season is dry, and before 
winter sets in they will have become 
fully established ready to take advan¬ 
tage of the first warm days of spring. 
And you will avoid the anxieties and 
delays unavoidable in the hectic rush 
of spring planting. 
One of the bedrooms is furnished with a painted set in dark green 
with medieval medallions and■ inlay. The plaster is light green 
Inside the House With the Green Door 
(Continued from page 13) 
Guiana. The plainness of the wood is 
relieved through the judicious use of 
decorative hardware. At the right is 
the library with its overhead balcony. 
The entire side is occupied by a built-in 
bookcase, corresponding with the door 
and trim, and balanced by rare old 
chests of foreign make and chairs with 
tapestry coverings that lend themselves 
artistically to the completion of the inte¬ 
rior decorative plan. 
Directly opposite this room is the 
drawing-room with its wonderful old 
16th Century furniture, including a desk 
and chests of Spanish workmanship, 
ornamented with carvings and exquisite 
wrought iron. The living-room has a 
caen stone fireplace with soft gray- 
brown lounge settles on either side, 
lightened by a rare bronze flower stand. 
The music room occupies the fourth cor¬ 
ner. Here rich pieces of Spanish silk 
used as coverings for the radiator and 
piano give a homelike atmosphere. 
Commencing with the hallway and ex¬ 
tending throughout the entire lower floor, 
we find a happy mingling of odd details 
that formulates harmoniously with the 
atmosphere. The dark tiled floor with 
its rich Oriental coverings is accentuated 
by the peaceful tones obtained by the 
plaster walls, which form a charming 
background for the rare Spanish fab¬ 
rics and foreign furniture. Not a mod¬ 
ern piece has been used in the furnishing 
of the entrance floor. 
Decorative wrought iron has been 
effectively applied in the dining-room, 
as its hard, unbending texture lends it¬ 
self admirably to the rich pieces of fur¬ 
niture. 
A touch of daintiness has been given 
to one of the rooms on the third story 
where a whole set of unusual painted 
furniture has been advantageously 
placed. The dark green background is 
illustrated with medieval medallions in 
soft contrasting tones and vividly- 
brought out by an inlay of varied col¬ 
ored wood. This set comprises a bed, 
table, bureau, commode, day bed, 
and small chairs. The plaster has been 
treated with a light green touch and is 
emphasized by the soft draperies which 
lend themselves admirably to the color 
tones.
