You don't have to be brainy

Practically all you need is the

But if you want your home to

if you want it to be pleasant to

more than a little charm in the
bargain-you either need good
taste and a relatively sure sense
of what to do about landscaping,
or you need a landscape architect.
This has been said many times
before, and whole books have been
written on the same general
theme. Yet the subject is always
new and a record of what other
people have done can be interest
