GRASS PLOT NEED IN GARDENS CITED Suggestions Offered to Make Flower Spots Attractive at All Times. BY ELLEN EDDY SHAW, There is always & charm and fasci- nation in talking about garden plans. It is very much more difficult to work a plan out. There are a few things to keep in mind—first, that your gar- den area, whether small or large, is a real outdoor spot of pleasure and beauty to you, and it should include in its features some Testful spots as contrast to areas of bloom. That is why landscepe gardeners are constantly talking of grass- areas and why years ago in England on large estates great grass plots were set | aside and spoken of as bowling greens. | When one looks at a small back yard one almost laughs at the thought of a bowling green, and yet in the center of the yard one may have a nice grass plot, small to be sure. Flagging Also Used. Some one told me recently how she | had flagged the center of her yard. That, too, may be done. There was a place in the center of this flag- ging for setting up the garden reel, which, after its_service time was over. | was taken in. Between the flags little rock-loving plants or cover plants were used. Thyme Such an area is restful, too. | back in our country to the Colonial | period, when one stepped out of the | back door onto a flagged or bricked | area. Somewhere in the garden plan there | should be beside this area for repose st deatll i oot S Ui i baSalle Park (BROOKLAND) . 1824 Varnum Street N.E.

DON'T DELAY—COME OUT EARLY AND MAKE YOUR SELECTION! 9,250 H.G.Smithy Co. National 5903 is excellent for this. | It dates | |und rest a place to sit and contemplate | the garden. Sometimes one may pre- | fer to have a flagged or gravel path, | not too wide, running down through | the center of the garden and ending| in the back with a seat, rustic or other- | wise, over which climbing roses, like| Dr. Van Fleet or silver moon, or moon- flower (so lovely at night) may be trained Another featur like to consider the placing of a garden seat—] dwarf apple, so th e which some might n your garden plan is ice fruit tree near the a crabapple, or a as one sits there in May the apple blossoms would add a| note of enjoyment both to the sense of sight and that of smell. | Flower Plants as Border. | Then all about one's garden there| should be flowering plants, perhaps in | a perennial border, perhaps in little formal beds, the roses by themselves,| the rock plants by themselves, the per- ennial garden splendid in the Summer | with areas of annual bloom. Do not forget that in all garden plans, no matter how carefully worked out, there are few plants which lend them- selves to a succession of all-year round perennial bloom. There must bg and will be periods of drop in this, O that one settles back on some of our good old annual flowering plants as standbys. | Snapdragons, zinnias, marigolds and annual phlox—none of these things is to be forgotten as adjuncts and helpers in_the perennial garden scheme. Remember in laying out a garden in small areas, if flowers of blue and lavender tones are planted in the back- ground, an increased feeling of space is given, while those warmer colors like vellows and orange draw a garden to us and make areas seem smaller rather than larger. No person can make a general garden plan for another, and a great deal of the choice in gardening is a matter of personal and individual taste. 232 Longfellow Street N.W.
