Parks Floral Magazine Vol 55

Excerpt from Park's Floral Magazine, Vol. 55: A Monthly Devoted to Flowers; May, 1919 Perhaps we will talk about the narrow piazza first. Naturally we wish to give apparent Width to the ungainly length. If the steps lead off of the piazza toward the street, it would be quite a help if you cared to change them to the side, say about midway. This makes it possible to obtain more seclusion, and does help quite a little in apparent width. The secret of giving this apparent width is to plant a wide border on the side and end of the piazza, about five feet makes a pleasing width for even a very narrow piazza, and it proves a nice width for the broader veranda, also. The bor der should be a little wider than the steps. I mean it should come out by the steps. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
