Using Walls and Fences.

More use should be made of walls and fences In small gardens. It is not always necessary that either ornamental or fruiting plants should, be In the open or clear of structures. Not alone ornamental vines, but also fruiting vines and shrubs may be trained in fan shape or flat against walls covered with mesh wire. Used in this way even melon and cucumber vines become ornamental and do splendid service as short-season screens.
