WINDOW GARDENS 
THAT TIE INTERIORS 
WITH LANDSCAPES 
—EE——————— le SYMMETRICAL DESIGN 
—reflecting the formal lines of the 
room. Perennial and annual flowers 
- predominate, and are backed by a 
clipped evergreen hedge. A 
row of untrimmed flower- 
ing crabapples or plum re- 
lieves stiffness and adds 
color. Evergreen trees may 
be used for a background 
if the view beyond is not 
desirable. 
Greater spaciousness, light and color can be given to your home by 
incorporating a window garden with your interior plan. You may 
be fortunate in having a picture window—if not, only minor altera- 
tions probably would be necessary to arrange for one. 
The window garden would be designed as an extension to, and 
an outlook from the room—styled along either symmetrical or in- 
formal lines. x, 
The garden would make a cheerful, living picture—seemingly a 
part of the room. : 
LOOKING OUT 
AN INFORMAL TREATMENT—as bright as a sunny opening in the woods. Flowering trees and 
shrubs are placed apparently at random, but really they are carefully placed, so as to hide ob- 
jectionable, or reveal desirable views. 
Irregular borders of annual 
and perennial flowers give ever- 
changing color to the scene. 
Evergreen plants may be inter- 
mingled with other planting for 
winter effect. This type of gar- 
den is very elastic. It may be 
of any size or almost any shape, 
and usually ties in well with 
other planting on the grounds.
