Foundation
Home Planting
Foundation planting, as the name
implies, refers to planting near the
base of a structure, and usually
includes varieties which are by na-
ture low growing or medium in
height. Judicious selection of ma-
terial for this purpose will enhance
good architectural features and
may, also assist in concealing
structural defects.
Trees and shrulbs• used in foun-
datbon -planting, says J. M Scatter-
ty of the Experimental Station at
Harrow, Ont., may be either ever-
green or deciduous or a combina-
tion of both. A high narrow house
will actually appear to have gain-
ed
ained height if planted with columnar
or pyramidal material. A much
better effect in this case will be
obtained by using shrubs of med-
ium height which 'will produce
masses of foliage and extending
them some distance beyond the
width of the building. Conversely
taller narrow growing trees or
shrubs may be used to excellent
advantage if the house is low and
wide.
Evergreens are usually more ex-
pensive than flowering shrubs put
are effective over a' much longer
period. The improvement in ap-
pearance will more than justify the
expense of planting an evergreen
foundation planting at least in
front of the home and at. entrance
points. This type of planting is
especially satisfactory in a;ea.s of
light snowfall where occasional
patches of color do so much to
ibrighten an otherwise drab appear-
ance.
ppearance.
Most of the Juniper varieties in
Canadian nursery lists are suitable'
for foundation planting. Pyramidal
and other upright growing varieties
should be planted at corners and
between windows, with low grow-
ing types under the windows. Jap-
anese Yew, Mugho Pine and infor-
mal types of. Arborvitae are also
useful.
Straight lines are to be avoidied
and no variety .should be used
which requires constant shearing
to keep it within bounds, Dark
green evergreens do not show up
as well against deep red brick
homes as those with lighter green
or gold -tipped foliage. Globe shap-
ed varieties retain their individual-
ity and should be omitted from
groups where informal mass effect
is the aim. Those of regular shape
are more satisfactory if planted by
steps or in any situation requiring
formal treatment. -
Deciduous shrubs for foundation
plantirig should be selected for fol-
iage effects rather than for strik-
ing flower appearance. The- same
system should) be followed with
