Planning the grounds is fully as important as 
planning the house. Use the best skilled advice you 
can procure for each. Don’t wait till the house is 
built before planning the grounds. The house should 
be fitted to the site from the start, and not the site 
remade to fit the house after it is built. The land- 
scape gardener’s forethought and study will deter- 
mine grades that will involve a minimum of han- 
dling of materials; existing natural features will be 
capitalized and preserved; driveway lines will pro- 
vide ample space for turning and parking, with 
proper drainage; and lawns, plantings and gardens 
will all provide the most attractive pictures, well re- 
lated to the home. By the simple use of foresight and 
skill it is very often surprising and gratifying how 
much can be accomplished for so little. Good land- 
scape planning invariably pays.
