Alcoves and Aquafloriums Any alcove or niche such as is found, in the hall or drawing-room of a period house will, when illuminated by concealed strip-lights, form an at-Tactive background for a skilful arrangement of massed flowers or leaves. In the spring graceful Sranches of hac-blossom, peach, and young beech leaves are suitable" later on, Darwin tulips, gladioli, and lilies.
Those round glass bowls, filled with water and called Aquafloriums, in which, by a patent process, a group of flowers can stand submerged and live thus transformed for weeks, lend themselves particularly to light-treatment. Lovely effects can be achieved if they are used as illuminated table-centres.
