Grouping Shrubs Close-in: GROUPING shrubs close-in around houses is distinctively American. I don't believe foundation planting is much done in Europe. It is a charming idea which, if carried out correctly, adds im¬mensely to the appearance of the home and to the community, because part of the planting is, ordinarily, visible from the street.
This method requires skillful reading t who plan efficiently and organize well. R tional reading periods in which no diagn skill-development activities take place ca considered to be individualized reading.
In conclusion, evidence indicates that tl to good grouping practices is flexibility, different types of grouping—whole class, by ability, by skill, and by interest—sh alternated throughout the year. No single grouping can meet all the reading needs group of pupils.See Also Pruning Than Shrubs:Evergreen shrubs are clothed in leaves throughout the year, with old leaves continually falling off and new ones being formed. Once established, these shrubs need no more pruning than shrubs than cutting out weak, diseased and straggly shoots in spring. Never prune evergreen shrubs in winter, as any young shoots that subsequently develop could be blackened and damaged.

On The Other Hand See Trees And Shrubs Had Walked:Grass, growing in the shade of trees and shrubs, has to compete with them for food as well as moisture. Relieve the pressure of this competition by providing for the needs of the trees and shrubs as •well as the grass. Fertilize the lawn regularly and also the trees and shrubs. So far as possi¬ble, place the fertilizer intended especially for the trees and shrubs deep in the soil so that their roots are encouraged to strike downward. This may be done by using the method described below. Fertilizer in¬tended primarily for the grass is applied at the surface.
Our garden began on a piece of land that was cleared for farming some 110 years ago and then neglected for years. By the time we purchased the property, the wild trees and shrubs had walked back like Birnam Wood from the nearby thickets. Since then, we've had a great deal of experience with wild plants.
