England and elsewhere. Whereas this form Of
horticultural scu1pture is lacking the Virginia
gardens are embsllished by many artistic
touch. For instance. the grassy or fower-banked
terraces which can be rendered 80 effective have
been introduced whenever the character Of the
site seemed to render 1T advisable and foun-
tains. stone garden seats. ETC.. are to be found
Just in the gardens laid out in more precise
fashion. The gardens Of the Old Dominion also
disclose a wide variety Of pergolas. arbors and
summer houses Some of these are Of rustic
construction and almost all of them unpre-
tentious In character compared with the
mental buildings to be found in twentieth
tury gardens where money has flowed like water,
but for quiet repose and the charm of sylvan sol
itude and trysting places for those who desire
to exchange condolences in a sympathetic though
secluded environment 1t is doubtful II there Ia
in the entire country anything to compare with
these vine-covered hooks.
Perhaps the ideal time to visit old Vir-
gtnia garden is in the spring early summer
when the prim box hedges have tips every
branch, giving them coat of soft green and
imparting the touch of feathers when the hand
is passed the soft surface Rose time is
bound to be favorite season because roses were
ever one Of the most cherished charges Of the
oldtime gardeners in this favored cline and

which will not be encountered elsewhere unless
they have been transplanted from Virginia soil
But In reality 1t Is injustice to praise the rose
eeaSOn ABOVE Otn0r intervals IN the prolonged
blossom time The chief ambition Of the owner
of colonial garden In the Old Dominion has
ever been to 30 select and arrange the flowers
that the garden will be continual mass of
bloom from the advent Of the magnolia the
SNOWFALL and the lilac In the early spring until
after the passing Of the Virginia creepers, the
jessamines. the passion vines and the hardy
chrysanthsmums Of the waning season.
The amount Of care necessary to keep vir-
gtnia garden in proper condition would be likely
to surprise resident of more northerly state
not familiar from experience with the rapidity
with which things grow in this favored cline.
Even the box hedges-perhaps two hundred
years old-must be trimmed back every year II
they are to be kept less than shoulder high so
that they will not prevent visitors to the garden
from obtaining general views Of the labyrinth of
greenery. The average colonial garden which
has been maintained in anything approaching its
old-time glory has greenhouse attached In
which plants may be given a favorable start

that have place in colonial garden are of the
'oldfashioned hardy sort. There are. however.
some features of the layout Of the flower beds
that render the colonial garden distinctive and
particularly is this the case with the neatly
trimmed little hedges that serve borders for
the various flower beds and in many instances
supply screens and boundary markers for the
garden.
In the case Of many of the older gardens all
or portion Of these hedges formed of the
richly tinted and sweet scented box. Indeed it
is the presence Of this shrub which is likely to
distinguish genuine colonial garden from the
newer sort Of floral setting. For be it known the
box is very difficult to transplant successfully
some say impossible-and 1t is OF very slow
growth. So much so. indeed. that handsome
hedge Of box is more likely than not to represent
the fruits OF a century more OF care and atten-
ton. Withal the box will grow fairly we'll If left
TO itself and only given time. but the watchful
care Of gardener Is required II 1t is desired
to restrict 1t to certain limits as for instance,
the borders of flower beds.
In the days preceding and following the Revo-
lution there were colonial gardens in all the thr
teen original states, but the finest Of these
located in Virginia. Nor this to be
dered at, for the Old Dominion was at that time
the seat Of the most notable country seats In the
new world. History tells Of the magnificent es-
tates maintained by George Washington, Thomas
Jefferson. Madison, Monroe and other prominent
Virginians Of that period. but there were dozens

perhaps not nationally as prominent, lived In the
same baronial style their expansive planta-
tons and had the slave labor that contributed
much to the development of such estates. A CO.
lonial garden was not only an inevitable adjunct
Of Virginia estate In those days Of lavish Nv-
ing. but 1t was in many instances the special
pride and hobby Of the lord mistress of the
manor house.
Now, strange to say, surprising number Of
these old colonial gardens retain to this day
much of their old-time splendor. We say surpris-
ing because 1t must be remembered that when
the devastating tide OF great Civil war swept
Virginia 1t played havoc with many
cestral estate and 1t would be too much to expect
that the gardens should not suffer did the
mansions. Furthermore, many of the old Vir-
S1nia families have been in greatly reduced cir

means to maintain the old gardens in the
