Bond No. 2 Bulbs - This one is for daffodils, narcissus, tulips, crocus, and all of the spring and fall bloomers for the garden. Of course just a piece of green grass would be cheap but not nearly so much pleasure. Bond No. 3. is to build the pool. This will have waterlilies and fishes in it and be along side the terrace. This bond ought to be enough to build it; but not to equip it. Bond No. 4 is for plants. Waterlilies for the pool; lilies and bleeding hearts and petunias etc for the flower borders. Also the herbs for your herb garden idea. Aunt Maude has lots of plants to give us and there are many we can have at Adrian. If we don't need all this money for plants, we can use it elsewhere all right.
