Backyard
Gardener
By Patrick Denton
Any houseplant lover
would have a fine time win-
dow gazing in Holland,
where a bare window is vir-
tually an unheard-of thing.
Like arrangements of cut
flowers, potted plants in
every home are considered a
necessity._of life.
In any spring trip to
Holland last year, rarely did
I see a house, school, office
or apartment window un-
adorned with plants.
In the cities, house win-
dows are located either right
on the sidewalks, or very
close to them so that the
passerby can easily take
note of the kinds of house-
plants that are popular with
indoor gardeners.
Today, may I invite you to
take a stroll with me along
the streets of the Hague,
where we can gather ideas
together for our own house-
plant collections.
The heavy white lace cur-
taining that frames the top
and sides of most windows in
Dutch homes presents a per-
fect setting for a display of
plants. Probably the most
simple elegant and at the
same time cheerful picture I
noticed was a bushy red -
flowering garden geranium
set between the curved lines
of white curtains.
One smaller, east -facing
window that especially
caught my interest was filled
and decorated entirely with
one plant, a beautiful oak -
leaf scented geranium
trained on a stout bamboo
stake to fill the window space
about two feet wide and
three feet high. This beauti-
ful houseplant created a
most graceful and homely
picture, its dainty filagreed
foliage dotted with clusters
of pink buds and blossoms.
Most windows, however,
featured an artful combina-
tion of flowering and foliage
plants. Flowering chrysan-
themums, hydrangeas, cy-
clamens and orchid cactus
seemed very popularand
were often grouped together
along with foliage plants like
Norfold Island pines, fiddle -
leaf fig and the large -leafed
climbing ivy called Fatshe-
dera.
Where these were flourish-
ing together, the light was
bright • without direct sun,
and the rooms, I suspect,
must have been rather cool
all the flowering plants in
this collection require cool
temperatures and high
humidity.
Another flowering plant
that appeared singly or in
small groups in many win-
dows was the amaryllis.: And
I noticed that amaryllis
bulbs were still being sold in
great quantities in garden
shops in late April when my
wife and I. were there.
One home owner created a
most artistic display with a
large front window in which
were centered three. red -
flowering amaryllis. Sur-
rounding them. were several
kinds of bushy, spreading
fibrous begonias and impa-
tiens. One of my old friends,
the' double rose impatiens,
was among them.
This houseplant dilay was
in . Limmen, home of the
Flowerbulb Museum and
Hortus Bulborum, a garden
in which all the old kinds of
flower bulbs are kept in exis-
tence both for their historical
value and the important
genetic material they con-
tain.
Each spring in `Limmen,
home gardeners enter their
gardens in a contest for the
best spring outdoor display.
The window'Which I just de-
scribed was at the home of
the top prize-winning gar-
den, which was filled with
complementary groupings of
spring -flowering bulbs.
Underneath the front win-
dow filled with flowering
houseplants ran a long, nar-
row bed planted with pink
and white low double early
tulips combined with purple
muscari, a most happy and
harmonious combination.
The proud Dutch gardener
whose efforts produced these
indoor and outdoor garden
delights was only too pleased
to pose for photographs amid
his beloved plantings. Not
unlike gardeners every-
where, he was delighted to
be aIIYe to share the fruits of
his endeavors.
