Floriculture. i~reenkouse guilders A Close Up On A Hitch Up Strange, wasn't it, why so many private green- houses used to be put away off somewheres on the place all by theii' lonesome I Who do you suspect is res|)onsible for the change?

So among the first things he has the architect do with the greenhouse, is exactly what we tried to get him to do, and he wouldn't listen. He attached his greenhouse to the garage or some of his other buildings, as in the picture below. For which Donn Harber the well known New York architect is in this instance responsible. Of course, a lot of greenhouses have in times past,been placed by architects in locations where growing conditions were sacrificed for looks, in spite of all the gardener could say. But happily for all concerned, architects now-a- days are working in perfect harmony with us, and we with them. We welcome their artistic suggestions. They take advantage of our exact knowledge and practical experience. As a result, the greenhouse has at last come "into its own" and is getting the careful con- sideration it has so long merited. If you think youi- employer would be interested, we will gladly send liim photos of greenhouses grouped with buildings or separate. orl& Bmiihamlo.
