LANDSCAPE GARDENING. S?. The beds near the house in front are filled with low trail- ing Evergreens, as Daphne Cneorum, Juniperus Squam- ata, Eepens, etc., while the bed on the left of the foot- path is planted with hardy Perpetwal Eoses and tree Peonias, keeping the flower- garden proper up near the house and immediately in view of the drawing-room bay window. As most of the land- ing is at the rear hall door, the turn-way is thrown in there, and a hedge borders the road on one side, separating it from the fruit or vegetable garden, barn, etc., beyond. The foregoing was designed worked out, written upon and published some years since, but as the generality of the plan has met favor with many of those who have enaployed me in my profession, I decide to include it in this Work. The illustrations of trees in the plan "will give to any sensible man an idea of what they are, while the text above tells of where to plant flowering shrubs, and of course the flower garden will be changed almost yearly by those who reside upon the place. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Elliott, Franklin Reuben, 1817-1878.
