But these two, the yew and the box, are the "precious" hedges, the silver and gold, of the garden-maker. Next, representing the copper and brass, are the hedges of beech and holly. Holly makes the best and most impenetrable of all hedges when clipped, but it is not beautiful for that reason. Clipped holly grows no berries; it accumulates dust and dirt, and has a dull, lifeless look.
Harmony was then first struck between the works of the horticulturist the garden-maker and those of the architect the builder in stone and wood. This was the prelude to those majestic ensembles of which Le Notre was to be the composer.
A haphazard garden of that sort is never satisfactory. In order to make even the smallest garden what it ought to be it should be carefully planned, and every detail of it well thought out before the opening of the season. To insure thoroughness in this part of the work I would advise the garden-maker to make a diagram of it as he thinks he would like to have it.
