England, and when stone manor houses succeeded the first rude camps landscape gardeners were brought from over the sea to create the formal gardens and parks that now adorn the region from Hendersonville to Asheville. Because here altitude makes up for a southern latitude the flora is more akin to New England than to the South. The highland gardens take their note from the native growth—avenues of straight white pines replace the wistful lines of brooding live-oaks, firs supplant magnolia and palmetto, and rhododendron the camellia. Yet somehow, despite their northern touch, they are still subtly reminiscent of the English hands that shaped their far beginnings. Nestled amid the great formal gardens of these western North Carolina estates and cities one finds the tiny and altogether lovely little flower gardens of the mountain cabins with velvety dahlias, the glow of dusty miller, stiff straw flowers and coxcomb, pinks, snapdragon and marigold clusters in neat, tended beds with border of dwarf box or juniper. In these small beauty- spots one finds many tender annuals that would perish in the hot coastal sun, but which were brought here, before the Revolution, perhaps in covered wagons down long mountain trails from Pennsylvania and western New York. Like their human companions they have taken sturdy root, invigorated by keen mountain air and nourished by the warm sun in sheltered coves. Humble garden plots are not restricted, of course, to the mountains—near the baronial splendor of the stately river gardens there are often the log cabins of the plantation "streets", half hidden by giant leaves of the elephant ear, whose roots are boiled and eaten by those who plant them. Again in cabin gardens are patches of benne, the sesame of the East, whose seeds mixed with sugar-cane syrup make the benne candy of Charleston street vendors. The ancestors of these two garden plants, so prized by the colored population, came long ago in ships that sailed to Carolina from the opposite African shores. Pinehurst, Camden and Aiken are in the belt of long-leaf yellow pine that covers the sand hills, and seem to appreciate this stately conifer as a distinctive garden setting. Rising from the clean white sand it is a thing of beauty in all stages—the young plants erect green plumes, and the larger saplings seem Nature's own Christmas trees with bright green fringe and new buds that stand like white tapers at the end of every twig, while the ancient trees show vast gray trunks that are beautiful against the intense blue sky of the South. Pinehurst, a resort of recent growth, features the young pines most effectively in its gardens. Canulen, a popular modern resort and at the same time a city of the Old South, takes quiet dignity from the tall murmuring pines of its many open squares. Here modern plantings are mingled with the vast formal gardens of another generation that often extend over an entire city square. A small native tree that is widely used in the gardens of the sand hill region, notably at Camden, is the Carolina laurel, a glossy evergreen that seems to flourish under almost any conditions and even lends itself graciously to the topiary art. Both at Belvedere on the Santee and in the delightful old Upton Court garden at Camden

Several articles on the Carolinas appear in this 1931 issue of Nature Magazine. The magazine was collected by George Masa. Born Masahara Iizuka and raised in Japan, George Masa (1881-1933) emigrated to the U.S. when he was 20 years old and, in 1915, came to Asheville, where he lived the rest of his life. Masa was active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
