The fields of Iris and of Peony are great sheets of brilliant bloom for many weeks. The surprising display of Mountain Laurel, growing here most happily, is matched by the gorgeous Rhododendrons, not in set fields, but in lines and corners which make their colors the more enjoy- able. The beauty of the more delicate hardy perennials is enhanced by contrast with stately borders of specimen trees and shrubs. One may see, too, a perfect scale of delicate, deep and rich greens, in looking over the ever- greens; while the brilliancy of the Japanese Maples close by only brightens the hues of the conifers. Andorra needs a visit—many visits—to be appreciated. The visitor can see suggestive effects; he can pick out the actual trees and plants he likes, and have them re- served for him. By all means, then, drive to Andorra, and see nurseries not paralleled anywhere. Visitors are welcome six days in the week. Driving maps showing the location of the Nurseries will be mailed on request. Chestnut Hill (City Line) trolley-cars run within three minutes walk of Nurseries. 2] Wm. Warner Harper.
