MAKING THE BACK GARDEN FOR HOME GARDENERS
The author argues back gardens should rival fronts in attractiveness with practical layout tips. Suggests relocating old clothes lines, screening with hedges or trellises, and using gravel underlines to reduce lawn care. Recommends vegetable patches along back fences, espalier fruit trees, and a lemon bush. Also advises screening, shade trees, and deep trenching with manure for productive soil.
