Well Defined Defense Gardens May
Become Combined Aspect of Beauty
Flower Borders Combine Well With Vegetable Rows
There Is no need to make vour of planting. Wide spreadine
home lot unsightly because of a flowers will not appear at their
Defense Garden. In fact there is Dcst "ere-
much real beauty in ordered rows ' A vegetable and flower garden
of varicolored green, whether
they are of onions, turnips, or
some of the brilliant annuals,
such as asters, or zinnias. A com
bination of the two is most satis
factory, and all it needs is a little
planning this time of the year.
A glance at the Illustration will
show you what can be done with
out much effort. Here the garden
has been divided up into beds
combining vegetables and flow
ers, with boundaries of the larger
blooms. They are separated by
walks of green lawn, which might
easily be made of flagstone, and
actually add to the beauty of the
landscape. Rows of annuals could
be planted alternately with the
vegetables, and a bolder of alys-j
sum, lobelia, or the signata pumi-
la marigold at the edge of the
walks, might give added
and finish.
setting out in the center of the
lawn is attractive, or it may be
moved farther back and encased
with a lattice fence, a low hedge
or shrubbery. Every home has its
own problem, and no matter how
large or small your back lot may
happen to be, there is room
enough for a beautiful garden.
Make plans now so that you may
have your seed in hand when the
planting season comes in just a
few weeks.
