The House in Good Taste
·
Elsie De Wolfe

Always
in
a
garden
I
think
one
must
feel
one
has
not
come
to
the
end,
one
must
go
on
and
on
in
search
of
new
beauties
and
the
hidden
delights
we
feel
sure
must
be
behind
the
clipped
hedges
or
the
trellis
walls.
Even
when
we
come
to
the
end
we
are
not
quite
sure
it
is
the
end,
and
we
steep
ourselves
in
seclusion
and
quiet,
knowing
full
well
that
to-morrow
or
to-night
perhaps
when
the
moon
is
up
and
we
come
back
as
we
promise
ourselves
to
do,
surely
we
shall
see
that
ideal
corner
that
is
the
last
word
of
the
perfection
of
our
dream
garden--that
delectable
spot
for
which
we
forever
seek!
We
can
bring
back
much
of
the
charm
of
the
old-time
gardens
by
a
judicious
use
of
trellis.
It
is
suitable
for
every
form
of
outdoor
construction.
A
new
garden
can
be
subdivided
and
made
livable
in
a
few
months
with
trellis
screens,
where
hedges,
even
of
the
quick
growing
privet,
would
take
years
to
grow.
The
entrance
to
the
famous
maze
at
Versailles,
now,
alas,
utterly
destroyed,
was
in
trellis,
and
I
have
reproduced
in
our
own
garden
at
Villa
Trianon,
in
Versailles,
the
entrance
arch
and
doors,
all
in
trellis.
Our
high
garden
fence
with
its
curving
gate
is
also
in
trellis,
and
you
can
imagine
the
joy
with
which
we
watched
the
vines
grow,
climbing
over
the
gatetop
as
gracefully
as
if
they
too
felt
the
charm
of
the
curving
tracery
of
green
strips,
and
cheerfully
added
the
decoration
of
their
leaves
and
tendrils.
