LANDSCAPE PLANNING
For the Home Owner
By ROSE CREELY, Landscape Architect.

WaShinStonan should have a Spe-
cia appreciation for small towering
trees as a group, because of the mag
nificent Spring displays that Wash
inStOn affords. The Japanese cherries
mirrored in the basin at Potomac
Park and the dogwoods bringing a
fort night of glory to Rock Creek are
enjoyed by thousan nds.
But as a group of plants for the
private place to he used singly or
in numbers. they are sadly neglected
In planting around the small house
the choice seems to go more often
to shrubs than to small trees. Shrubs
are used not only where they belong
where solid mass planting. low or
of medium height, is desired. but also
where small trees Nigh be substituted
to good advantage.
ornamental trees have tWo-fold
mission. They may be used as
screen. as background for other
planting, or they may in themselves
be the center of interest. If a high
screen is necessary. nothing is more
effective than thicket Of haWthornS

as the center of the composition. In

If you, Mr.. Average American, re-
