Evening Fragrance
Will Add Charm
To ANY Garden

Gardeners are redlscovering the
charm Of fragrance, and taking care
to select for every planting some
flowers which can be depended upon
to perfume the evening air.
The sweet scented tobacco, nico-
tiana alba, is surpassed by none in
delightful fragrance. It's long tubu-
lar flowers close in midday, but open
as evening approaches and give forth
their rich perfume. Sweet Rocket, a
hardy perennial which grows easily
from seed, is most fragrant flower.
The old-fashioned tuberose, which
suffered lapse Of popularity for
many years because it was too often
used as a funeral flower, is returning
to favor in gardens, being no longer
used in funerals. It's odor, too heavy
for the taste of many for indoor use,
is delightful when diffused on the
evening air. A few bulbs planted
along the garden path will be de-
lghtfully evident on summer eve
nings.
One Of the most fragrant evening
flowers is the night scented stock
(matthiola bicornis). A somewhat
straggly, lilac-howered plant, not too
attractive in the daylight, it emits in
the evening, or after daylight
shower, a cloud of sweetness.
Evening primroses, oenotheras, are
native American flowers Of notable
evening fragrance.

ennial border. Groups of 10 to Is
bulbs of variety spaced through
out the flower border give color and
height long before any of the an
nuals or tall perennials show a sign
of color. To me this seems to be a
very useful garden practice that
needs to be more generally followed.
Maybe some feel that it interferes
with the care OF the border, and per-
haps it does, but the results justify
any extra work involved. The space
occupied by the tulips can be ham
died in several ways Some garden
ers SOW the seed or plant ANIMALS
to hide the dying foliage and to
utilize the space. Other gardeners
lift the entire tulip plant and heel
it-in in some -the-way place
until the bulbs mature. Still other
gardeners plant low-growing per-
ennials among them. This latter
practice, however, interferes with
the lifting and resetting which the
tulips need every two or three
years-annually is better.
All kinds of tulips may be ef-
fectively used in formal beds They
lend themselves to pattern through
their variation in height and colors
much better than do most of the
other spring Towering bulbs.
Tulips do not naturalize we'll be-
cause of mice and moles-which
relish the bulbs. Where bulbs are
planted in clay soil, or where some
means OF keeping the rodents away
from the bulbs can be employed,
then tulips can be safely naturalized.
While they do not maintain their
size, they will persist and flower for
several years. I have used T. clusi-
ana and T. Sylvestris in flower bor-
ders where the soil was too heavy for
mice and moles, successfully. and
they maintained their size of flowers
very well.
The choice OF varieties should
depend more on height, form and
color than upon adaptability. The
Dutch growers have, for several
years, devoted considerable effort to
the elimination of unsatisfactory
varieties.
In cutting tulip flowers care
should be taken to leave one or two
of the large basal leaves to aid the
development of the bulb. Spent
flower stems should be broken off
to prevent the formation of seed.
The plants should be kept vigor-
ously growing until the foliage be-
gins to mature to insure plump,
healthy bulbs for next years
flowers.
If it is not desired to keep the
bulbs growing in the flower beds
they can be lifted with a ball of
dirt on the roots and heeled-in
some place where growth will con-
tinue. A practice that has been
recommended of late is to dig the
bulbs as soon as mature, divide and
reset at once, the claim being made
that the bulbs store better in the
soil than in the basement. This
may be worth trying.

Leaves From
The Garden
Notebook
Pinching Out Tops
Of Annals Makes
Bushier Growth

The seed Of ANIMALS not already
sown should be planted as soon as
possible, otherwise it will be better
to purchase plants. Many OF our
most common ANIMALS will give a
long season Of bloom If started early
hence delay in starting the seed will
curtai the length Of the Towering
season.
In setting out ANIMALS it is well
to pinch out the tops. This will
enable them to make q bushier
growth and 1t also helps them to
withstand the shock OF transplant
ing.
Divide and reset large clumps OF
primroses now to give them a long
season of growth and a fine display
of bloom next spring To divide
lift them and shake of as much OF
the dirt as possible, then pull the
clumps apart. They are made up OF
a number of small crowns. Each
crown will develop into a blooming
sized plant by fall.

It is earlier than necessary to
plant the tubers of the large flower
ing varieties Of dahlias, but tubers
Of bedding dahlias should be set out
now. If you are going to depend
upon seed for them, of course the
seed is already in the cold frames
Cor should be-. The earlier they
are started the earlier they will be-
gin to provide cutting flowers and
color for the border.
The recent rains and cool weather
have given the weeds and grass q
fine start. There is more than a
little bit Of work needed in most
gardens to clean out the flower beds
and iris borders. Pile the weeds and
grass on the compost pile-they are
really useful there.

At this season the foliage of the
daffodils begins to droop and look
untidy. Some gardeners tie it up to
stakes, others comb" it into an in
conspicuous space and plant an
nuals. No good gardener cuts of
the daffodil foliage until it has ma
tured. Where the daffodils are
planted on the edge of a shrub bor-
der, the leaves of the shrubs will
take care of this problem. In the
perennial border, however, the use
Of ANIMALS is probably as satisfac-
tory as any method Of keeping the
border looking trim and neat.

It Is interesting to note the place
being given to flower gardens and
flower shows at the New York
Worlds Fair. The grounds are
handicapped with trees, flowers and
bulbs and contain many exhibition
paintings. Flower shows have been
scheduled throughout the entire
summer and fall. This would indi-
cate that the business people realize
the widespread interest in flowers
and gardening.

(o.1Z lICIeS) MAKE tIleLu very c1 -
fective for such uses. Tulipa kauf-
manniana, shorter of stature and
earlier than the single earlies, is
more widely used in the rock gar
den than in the border. The cost
OF the bulbs probably accounts for
this rather than lack of color or
Adaptability.
The lady tulip IT. clusiana) is
somewhat taller than most of the
earIes. and is so dainty and grace
full that it should be more widely
used in the perennial borders. A
group of them in a protected loca-
ton will provide early bloom for
cutting.
The cottage, darwin and breeder
groups follow in Towering season
and they provide the mass of color
that we normally associate with
tulips. They differ somewhat in
botanical characteristics, but for all
practical purposes gardeners treat
them alike. The cottage tulips are
supposed to bloom trifle earlier,
are more slender and furnish most
of the yellow-flowered varieties. The
darwins are a sturdy group of well
established value, while the breeders
are a huskier group with some of
the darker colors and color combi-
nations. AS a group, these three
are tall-growing GIG to 80 inches)
and provide most of the bloom that
we see in the flower shows.
AS mentioned above, great many
gardeners plant them in rows for
cutting, but I wish to emphasize
their value for planting in the per-

Flowers shaped like lilies, of deep
crimson, gold and purple, with every
color enriched by conspicuous VEIN
ing of gold, are borne by the salpi-
glossis plant.
BY no means new flower, II still
is little known, though one of the
most beautiful of all the ANIMALS.
And while one of the easiest of
flowers to grow, some home gar
deners say they always fail with it.
To make sure of success, give it
sunny row in the vegetable plot,
SOW 1t when you put in the radishes,
cultivate it with the hoe and other
wise let it alone. In due time it
will reward you with a wealth of
beautiful blossoms, withstanding
even severe drought with great en-
durance.
1t does not like to be transplanted,
though when plants are we'll grown
in pots they can be transplanted
with good results. When sown in
company of other plants, it often
sulks and refuses to bloom. Appar-
emily it likes sunshine and plenty of
room. After growing to a few
inches in height it may stand still
for many days, but if planted in e
place it likes, it will start to grow
again and bloom profusely.
Plant breeders have greatly i'm
proved the size and color range CT
the salpiglossis, and have devel-
oped strains which flower more
freely, and on shorter stems than
the older types. The coloring of
the salpiglossis is unique; no other
flowers provide the same rich
blends of rose, pink, blue, violet,
crimson and maroon.

size from that of a small grape
to a lemon. The smaller type re-
mains on the tree in masses

These trees are of the genus Pyrus,
which includes apples and pears,

People building new homes, or re-
landscAping old grounds or gardens,
arranged for the proper basic outlets
and cables to be installed when the
work was started. The general idea
that garden illumination consisted
OF floodlight, glaringly placed in

to the realization that special equip
ment, tones Of light, color introduc-
ton to bring out certain hues in
flowers or to add beauty to playing
fountains made garden lighting q

amply repaid any expenditure in its
breathtaking loneliness.
The published accounts Of noe
turnal illumination at the great
Fairs furthered this interest and
understanding, with the result that
more and more people are today
seriously going in for "24-hour gar
dens," both large and small.
Washington is particularly in line
Tor such treatment. All through the

in other parts of the city one sees
the large, gracious homes, surround

the breath of Towering trees and

real size and beauty.
For those of us who must HE to

is the Malus niedzwetzkyana, also
called red-vein or pink -flowering
crab. The entire tree, including bark
and leaves, turns a dark reddish
purple hue. The flowers and fruit
are of the same reddish purple. It
is of average size, a very unusual
and striking ornament for lawns
or gardens.
There are many other varieties,

and color. The largest Of all is
the Malus theifera, or tea crab, of
a stiff, upright growth. 1t is very
handsome and rather uncommon.
Its flowers are a clear pink and

crimson checks, of the usual wax
mess and symmetry. A very beau

Malus ioensis, or Bechtel crab, the
species most commonly seen in
local gardens, is Of average size.
This is a hardy tree and blooms
later than the others, around
the middle of May. Its large pink
flowers resemble roses and are very
fragrant. The Malus halliana park
mani is rather small and bushy,
ranging from 10 to u feet. It is
slow-growing for its kind and has
long. thin stems like many Of the
head-shaped varieties. The leaves
are a glossy green and the flowers
