General
See lecture booklet - "Small gardens and terraces" - Slide # 77. The Wissahickon Garden Club entered a walled garden in a formal geometric design. Tulips are selected for a succession of bloom and interspersed with perennials in the borders. Later annuals replace the tulips and in the fall chrysanthemums are moved in when they begin to show color.
