In West Vancouver rock gar- de»ing is one of the most ap- propriate and interesting forms of ibeautifying home grounds. The existing slope is a decided asset and a splendid opportunity to indulge in the pleasures of growing the varied and alto- gether charming alpine flom. If your main garden is already established and is of the formal type, the rock garden should, if possible, be entirely separate or effectively hidden, as the two types are not congenial. The beauty of both is frequently lost if they are combined. while eith- er alone is a reward worth work- ing for. The rock garden should, if possible, be located far enough away from large trees so that the nourishment in the soil will riot be taken up by the tree roots instead of supplying the needs of the rock plants; also drippings from the overhanging branches tend to rot the plants. After the site has been select- ed the soil should be thoroughly loosened up and enriched with well rotted manure, and the soil for placing between the rocks should be carefully prepared. A good mixture for this purpose may be prepared as follows: Four parts light loam, two parts leaf mold, two parts road grit, or crushed limestone, and two parts manure, all thoroughly mixed. In selecting the rocks an ef- fort should be made to secure those which have been lying on top of the ground, which have as a rule a weather-beaten ap- pearance that is pleasing. A large rockery, of course, requires large rocks, while rocks of an average size are more suitable for a small rockery, although the appearance of a small rock- ery may be improved by the ju dicious placing of a few larger rocks. Rocks that do not crum- ble easily should be selected. There are two styles of rock gai4e»s. One is that which is made by the use of stratified rocks, that is, rocks with parallel horizontal lines running through them, such as limestone and shales. The other is secured by the u se of igneous, or non-strat- ified rocks, such as granite. The two classes of rocks should not be mixed in a rockery. If strat ified rock is used the lines, al- though broken in several places, follow along in one general di- rection for the most pleasing re- sults. However, the use of gran- ite or non-stratified rocks will present a very pleasing appear- ance and is we believe more eas- ily available in )Vest Vancouver. In building the rockery the larger rocks should be placed at the bottom and form the back- ground. They should not be placed one after the other in a straight line, but an effort should be made to place them in a naturalistic manner. The face of the rockery may have a gentle slope in some parts, and may be almost perpendicular in others. More interest is obtain- ed by varying the slope.
