Some trees and shrubs endure the shade, but most of them prefer sunlight. After a number of years many ‘trees and shrubs grow too large! |for the space in which they were] planted. They cannot be trimmed | back without destroying their nat-| ural shape and must, therefore, be! moved elsewhere and be replaced with plants that do not grow so large. This is the sane and satis-! [fying method and can be done | without much expense, but good | judgment must be used when selecting the replacing plant, Crowded shrubs result from a de-| sire to try every plant you see or | hear about, or from failure to cal-| sharply in a planting or are out of culate correctly the rate of growth,| date.
