The plan shows suggestions for plant¬ 
ing a border 80' long, giving a se¬ 
quence of color from Spring until 
Autumn. Annuals and bulbs may be 
used to supplement the perennials, but 
should be chosen zvith regard to their 
color, height and flozvering season 
Many of the Summer flowering plants 
may be encouraged to spread over the 
spaces left vacant by those of Spring. 
Wallflowers, for example, may be 
lifted to give more room for snap¬ 
dragons, in their turn to be removed, 
when their flowering has finished
