PLATE XLII. In open sunny exposures on sandy or light loam soil there is no ground cover which surpasses the Japanese spurge in richness of colour or interesting texture of foliage, especially in combination with plant- ings of evergreens ( See page 204, group XXIX-B)
Plate XLIII. Our garden steps can be made a part of the flower garden, and not the usual cold and uninvit-ing mass of stone or brick, by a well-designed grouping of plants adapted for growth in the earth-crevices amongthe rocks. Note the use of candytuft, ground phlox, moss pinks, varieties of stonecrops and rock cress. (Seepage 208, group XXIX-F, also see group XV-C) |
