DOES YOUR LANDSCAPING FIT YOUR HOME? 
After all, we would not think of wearing a suit 
of clothes or a dress that did not fit, nor one that 
was not appropriate. We just would not look our 
best in mis-fit clothing, and we would look out of 
place at a formal evening affair in sport clothing. 
Our homes are not all built according to the same 
type of architecture. Some are of the low rambling 
ranch house type, some again are two stories with 
two story porches, some are extremely modern in 
design and others are of more conventional design. 
Obviously no one type of landscape architecture 
would begin to “fit” all types of homes, the land- 
scaping must fit into the picture — be designed for 
YOUR particular home and for what YOU want. 
One person will want an out-door living area, 
possibly a paved patio with barbecue pit and space 
for gracious out-door entertaining. Another will 
want a broad expanse of unbroken lawn, while an- 
other will want a secure area in which children may 
play without danger of straying off. Each has his 
own ideas and each his own needs. To bring these 
ideas and needs into a design which is in com- 
plete harmony with the home and its natural set- 
ting is where our Landscape Department enters the 
picture. 
With a staff of thoroughly experienced Land- 
scape Architects at your disposal, men who thor- 
oughly understand our Florida plants, soils and 
climate, and who are well versed in the best of 
landscape design, we are in a position to assure 
that your home grounds will be well and artistically 
designed, will fit into the picture in such way as_ 
to harmonize completely with your home and yet 
will give you what YOU want from a standpoint 
of utility as well as beauty. 
A phone call or post card to our nearest office 
will bring a Landscape Architect to see you and to 
discuss your landscape needs and thoughts with 
you. There is, of course, no cost nor obligation 
entailed in such a visit.
