DENVER — COLORADO 
You Can ADD TO YOUR 
PLANTING YEARLY 
Complete planting according to a modern plan may 
require more outlay than you wish to make in one year; 
but it is easily possible to spread the expenditure over 
several years on a budget system. 
Of course if one can plant all at once, the enjoyment 
of well planted grounds comes sooner, but if this is im¬ 
possible planting part at a time is very satisfactory. 
The successive steps to be taken, vary with the 
amount which can be expended each year. However, we 
believe that the following yearly planting improvements 
are about average. The planting schedule is so arranged 
that the most necessary improvements in beautifying the 
home will be taken care of first, and with the thought 
in mind of getting the trees, which are to provide shade, 
started early. 
FIRST YEAR 
Shade Trees, Ornamental Trees. 
Evergreen and shrub foundation planting. 
Lawn. 
Fertilizer. 
SECOND YEAR 
Shrubbery for screening and background. 
Hedges. 
Vines. 
Flowering shrubbery. 
Fertilizer. 
THIRD YEAR 
Fruit trees, small fruits. 
Perennials. 
Rose Garden 
Fertilizer. 
Later, flagstone walks, pools, rock gardens, pergolas 
and garden furniture may be added, depending, of course 
on the size of the home and grounds, and the desires of 
the owner.
