The garden that we made . t® Other GardensI Have Planned and subulata, both of which are very pretty, Telekia specioso(a tall, yellow-blossomed plant which is highly decorative),etc. The result is very good indeed. On one side of this rock—now a rockery—stands agnarled old oak on a hilly bank. Out of this bank we arenow making another rockery. The owner of the estatehas herself constructed the stone steps—adorned with anumber of plants—which lead to the seat under the oak onthe summit of the hill. On either side of the steps therehave been annuals of different kinds; they are now goingto be replaced by bulbs, with a view to next spring. Thus the wilderness is transformed into one of the mostidyllic spots imaginable. Love of flowers and two yearswork have accomplished this. Such success means earnest endeavour, joy in oneswork, and pride in what one has accomplished. I canonly hope that as many as possible may experience, as Ihave, the keen pleasure that gardening affords the actualgardener. Wyiirsa* 57 Digitized by IVIicrosoft®
