Strange Garden Creations.

l often ask myself where in the
world the strange erections that stalk
through an increasing number of
American gardens that even cover not
a few American verandas, staring
white, bare of foliage, and solid enough
to support sky-scraper, are supposed
to hals derived their origin, writes H.
G. Dwight, in the Atlantic Monthly
Magazine. In some of the greatest
Italian gardens the pergolas are made
Of slender unplaned poles fastened to-
gether by withes, which are invisible
under the vines that cover them.
The nakedness of American pergo-
las has sometimes been explained to
me by the fact that grapevines must
be cut down every year in order to
bear we'll. What of it? The vine ex-
lists for the pergola, not the pergola
for the vine.
Even in countries so poor as Greece
and Turkey thousands of vines are
grown simply for their shade and
beauty. If We called a pergola a trel-
lis, and were done with it, we might
be less in danger of disfguring our
gardens by species of snow-shed.
