GARDEN HELPS

Conducted by Minnesota Garden Flower Society

Edited by MRS. E. W. GOULD, 2644 Humboldt Avenue So.

*Notices of our May, June, July and August meetings will be mailed to
members. Being exhibition meetings, the dates will depend upon weather
conditions.

It is suggested that in cases where plants have not already been
exchanged, the informal exhibition of spring flowers, our May meeting,
be also "Exchange Day," and that plants for exchange be brought to that
meeting.

A SHAKESPEARE GARDEN.

So wide an interest in the commemoration of the tercentennial
celebration of Shakespeare's death has been awakened by the "Drama
League of America" that there will be many old English gardens planted
in 1916,--gardens containing as many as possible of those flowers
mentioned in his plays.

Not all of these many flowers and shrubs could be grown in our climate,
some mentioned, such as nettles, burdocks, plantains and other weeds,
would be entirely out of place in a garden, soon overrunning it. It must
be remembered, too, that in Shakespeare's time herbs and wild flowers
were cultivated in most gardens, that many considered beautiful then are
now almost forgotten, and that some have been so far surpassed by their
improved hybrids, the originals would not now be cultivated.

We have not attempted, therefore, to include all of the flowers so
lovingly mentioned by the poet, but have used only those that will prove
beautiful and hardy in Minnesota, making a planting that will prove,
with proper care, permanent. Were each plant labeled with its proper
quotation the garden would prove much more interesting, e.g., "There's
rosemary, that's for remembrance--" Hamlet, marking the plant of that
name.
