The two perennial borders shown in natural color on pages 9 and 10 are 
each 18 feet long and 5 feet wide. You can reproduce these in your own 
garden without trouble. We are showing below planting plans and two lists 
of plants used in the making of these borders. If you want to make a longer 
border than 18 feet, simply repeat the units and the effect will be very fine. 
It is what professionals do.

Tall clumps of Siberian Iris with Hemerocallis, German Iris, and Lupines 
form the background. In the foreground are early Veronicas, Coralbells, 
Scotch Pinks, and Dianthus Essex Witch, making a beautiful grouping for 
May and June. The place of these early flowers is taken in midsummer by 
Phlox, Shasta Daisies, Platycodon, and Tiger Lilies, which are at their best 
in July and August.

are planted Regal and Umbellatum Lilies. The yellow foreground is created
