Color effects, in a wide range of values are easily secured, so that whether it be a succession of bloom which we a~ seeking or striking color combinations to brighten our vistas, delightful results can be secured without much effort . The following combinations have been found by the writer to be especially attractive; Late flowering Lilies among Oriental Poppies. . Pink and white Peonias as a background for White Phlox.

In the center of this lower garden stood in early days a sun-dial, which was almost lost amidst the clinging roses at its base.
