A CITY YARD that’s really a ure’ has grown gradually unr the skillful fingers of Mrs. Rebecca Howe, 3909 N. Delaware st. Now in its fourth season it is outlined with flowers, has stepping stone paths from rosebeds and perennial borders, past lilies and delphiniums, to a tuberous begonia bed tucked into a shady corner. Mrs. Howe has done all the spading and planting herself though her daughter, Mrs. Thom=~ 88 McCrae, lent a hand by laying the stepping stones. She achieves her effects largely with blending and massing of color. In one section the delicate pink of a Mary Wallace climber spreads out into a 25-foot fan. In front of it the blending pink of Else Poulsen floribunda roses and the similar tones of old-fashioned clove pinks pick up its color. For contrast there’s the blue of delphinium spires and the gleam~ ing white of Shasta daisies and Snowstorm petunias — large and free flowering. » FJ »

They're impervious to bugs and disease, and if you give them a little bone meal they just outdo themselves.” She outlines her bed of hybrid tea roses with purple alyssum and dots the color with an occasional white or yellow pansy. Her recipe for a closely packed flower border where a weed just wouldn't stand a chance (though she started out with the usual basement excavation subsoil) is “plenty. of manure, bone meal and peat moss.” She has found redwood bark especially good for soil lightening and uses it to mulch her rose beds. 8 - ” THIS WEEK in the vegetable garden—Pull lettuce plants
