Liberian Border: I southeastern part of the country is a re-Fof high forest, with mountains over 5,000 ^(1,500 meters) high and a series of sharply '; hills toward the Liberian border. Mount , (6,000 feet, or 2,000 meters), the highest in Guinea, is on the Liberian border, i and east of the high forest zone is Upper an extension of the plateau region into I Sudanese plains, where the open savanna ' and ample rainfall permit the cultivationny. Guinea is an agricultural country, i vast majority of Guineans are engaged nee fanning. The coastal areas pro-i major agricultural exports—bananas and s-as well as rice, the staple of the i diet. Forest wealth exists in the south-jand hides, skins, and meat are produced in |?outa Djallon area.
THE BEST WAY of planning a border is to work with small groups of plants so you can concentrate on the relationship between the subjects, and so gradually build up the groups into a whole border planting. Choose plants with shapes that complement each other and which make an interesting and varied effect.
You will notice that different plants create a variety of effects. Spiky plants, for example, are active and lead the eye upward and onward to neighboring plants, while gentle hummock-forming plants are calming and bland, and lead the eye horizontally along the border.
At the same time think of height. Either use a tier system with tall plants at the back and shorter ones at the front, or use tall plants in the middle of the group to create peaks of interest, with shorter-growing plants leading the eye upward toward them. This will divert the eye and prevent it from traveling straight down the border, taking it all in at a glance. However, if tall plants are used toward the front of a border, they should be wispy enough to allow the eye to pass through them, yet substantial enough to break the line.See Also Border Of Tyrol:The variety which makes for spice in travel is nowhere more stimulat¬ing than in Austria. For hundreds of miles one rolls through Alpine splendors, for the mountains are everywhere. The map shows thirty sepa¬rate ranges of them by name. In at least seven of the nine provinces, Vorarlberg, Tyrol, East Tyrol, Carinthia, Salzburg, Styria and Upper Aus¬tria, all in the Allied zones, they are predominant. The two Russian prov¬inces are less mountainous.
I've al¬ready glowed about the Weserbergland, but keep in mind also the glorious Moselle Valley and its side valleys; the Harz area (part of this is on the free side of the line); the North Sea and Baltic islands and beaches; the so-called Romantic Road, a chain of treasured towns from Wurzburg through Rothenburg and Augsburg clear to the border of Tyrol, at Fiissen (map-work is suggested); the Zugspitze, Germany's highest peak (9730 feet), reached by a cogwheel train; the Danube Trail, from the river's birth in Donaueschingen, in the Black Forest, through Ulm to Passau, at the Aus¬trian border; the pretty Bergstrasse, from Darmstadt down to Heidelberg; and what one might call the "Hohenzollern Highway," a road of great interest leading from Donaueschingen through the rolling Swabian coun¬tryside to Stuttgart.The cities of Germany are a gleaming galaxy, each worthy of at least a day, but they are so numerous that each can have barely a sentence here. They shall be presented in alphabetical order.
On The Other Hand See Border Between:A border between needs a certain amount of space to be effective. The minimum requirements are 4 x 12ft. If the border between is any smaller than this you should restrict the number of plants used to six or seven different types, ensuring that they provide a good mix of flowers and foliage over a long period of the year.
Align the edge of the border between with your ruled pencil guideline. When you are satisfied that the border between paper is straight, brush it onto the wall. Until the paste dries, you can make minor adjustments to the position of the paper, if necessary. Just carefully lift a corner, peel back as much paper as you wish to reposition, and then brush it down in place once more. Don't overstretch the border between paper at this stage. By tugging it, you may get a perfectly flush fit, only to find that it shrinks back slightly as it dries out. This will leave unsightly gaps that cannot then be rectified.
