Beauty in any planting de-
ponds not primarily on the
nature and quality Of what
Is used but rather on how
the plants are combined and
how they are related to one
another.
Failure to combine plants
effectively commonly results
in spottiness. AS the name
implies, spottiness consists Of
isolated plants or groups that
create spots of interest not
related harmoniously.
This may be true though
each Of the plants is q per-
feet specimen in itself. The
eye jumps uneasily from one
to. another, giving rise to q
restless feeling that impairs
the beauty of the planting.
On the other hand. the
same plants can be used In
a way that is more satisfying.
Instead of jumping from
plant to plant or group to
group. the eye is led smooth
ly and easily from one end
Of a border to the other. This
effect is accomplished bas-
ically by the arrangement,
but it is also aided by the
low edging in the front that
pulls the planting together"
Don't Trust to chonee

sort Of pattern in mind small

small beds should be avoided
