U it pleasing from the street? Do people, in passing, think "I'd bkt to live there?" Often the answer to this question is to be found in the character of the landscaping. which in effect provides the "showcase" of the home. Sometimes the planting of a single tree or a few shrubs can change the whole aspect. A flower ing tree or shroubs, well placed, or evergreens that keep their green all year add "life" to the property. Test the "curhside" rating of your home by standing on the side walk and asking yourself the fol lowing questions as suggested by the American Association of Nurserymen: 1. Is the home blended natural ly into thq landscape, presenting a pleasing aspect from the curb, both winter and summer? 2. Is the foundation of the home bare, or well-planted? 3. Are the foundation plantings overgrown and scrawny obscuring windows? Do they need pruning, or would be better to replant entirely with more tasteful plants? 4. Are there color and variety from the use of shrubs or trees with different foliage and flower textures and forms? 5. Does the property as seen from curb "hail" the various sea sons of the year? If the answers to the above ques tions are in the negative, then it is time to call in your nurseryman for suggestions. In some residential areas a walk along the street in the spring time is a delight to the eye with shrubs of various species aglow with different or even the same flowers on separate properties. In summer and fall, as well as in winter, attractive plant contrasts can be shown. In winter, the dark green of coniferous and broadleaf ed evergreens are distinctive and beautiful against the snow. They add "life" to the property during the dormant season. For fall, var ious foliage colors ireds and yel lows) will give the property a hos pitable golden glow. Summer flow ering trees and shrubs can add to the beauty of the property in the warmer months. Daily demand for water in thn United States is estimated at 200 billion gallons.
