Edward Gillett, Southwick, Mass. • LANDSCAPE SERVICE 3 
A border planting of native conifers and broad¬ 
leaved evergreens arranged by our Service De¬ 
partment. 
This path, cut through the woodland, will soon 
show a splendid undergrowth of broad-leaved 
evergreens, ferns and wild flowers. 
A Consulting Naturalist 
Owners of places which have been laid out and planted by competent Landscape 
Architects, have in a great many instances, undeveloped woodlands, uncultivated 
fields, or suitable locations for Wild Flower Sanctuaries, Bird Sanctuaries, Rock, 
Bog or Water Gardens, which do not require construction work or the making of 
detailed plans. Expert advice and supervision is needed, however, if it is desired 
to successfully install any of the features named, and my Consulting Naturalist 
is available for this purpose. This student and lover of American plants has 
devoted his life to acquiring an intimate knowledge of our native flora, the cultural 
requirements of each species and the tasteful use of those that arc appropriate for 
the various forms of Naturalistic planting. lie also serves as consultant to Land¬ 
scape Architects, Park Superintendents and others who are not familiar with native 
plants, and finally, has charge of my correspondence department, which endeavors 
to answer fully and cfcarly all questions that come by mail.
