CLEMATIS PANICULATA AT THE CEDARS. WBLLESLEY. MASS 



CLEMATIS PflNlCUlflTfl. 



This is one of the most desirable, useful, 

 beautiful and hardy of our garden vines, 

 and it is long lived and easy to grow and 

 manage. Our illustration of it is en- 



graved from a photograph taken last 

 September and kindly sent to us by Mr. 

 Henry S. Hunnewell, The Cedars, Welles- 

 ley, Mass. Mr. Hunnewell writes: "It 

 seems to be one of the very best of vines to 

 grow near the house, as it is so free from 



insects, and remains neat looking 

 throughout the year, in fact, the seed 

 vessels, after blooming, are rather orna- 

 mental."

 flowers, and the position about the house
