Genera/ Electric Company, Schonoctady, N. Y. GE Mi-n. i 1 1 An always welcome scene in the spring are the lovely azaleas in the flower garden of MR. and MRS. CLYDE S. LANKFORD which this year are especially pretty. The aza leas, thrift, tulips, pansies, iris and many other flowers are now in full bloom, a riot of color, with contrast added by the white of other plants and dogwood trees. Each year hun dreds of visitors call to view the my- | riads of flowers in the Lankford yard i and. already this year many have registered from throughout South Carolina as well as other states. Mr. j and Mrs. Lankford, since they are i both away during the ddy, have very | graciously hung out a “visitors wel- i come” sign. One plant of particular ; interest added to the garden during ■ the past year is a blue-white iris which came from the banks of the Nile. The original plant was sent by a relatives in Africa to Mrs. Robert | Roper of Laurens, who in turn gave the Lankfords a cutting. Mrs. Lank ford planted a “Victory” tulip bed of red, white and blue American bulbs (no bulbs have been received from Holland for the past two years). Al though the blue is not a bright Amer ican color, the shades blend beauti fully and it is a lovely bed of plants. There are a number of other out standing flower gardens in the city, including those of MRS. DENNIS SOWERS and MRS. C. E. GALLO WAY, MRS. B. H. BOYD and MRS. A. E. SPENCER.
