280 VINES 
Best vines for ground covers. ‘These are nearly 
allevergreen. With few exceptions, they should 
not be planted among low growing shrubs, as 
they will ascend them: 
Euonymus radicans Hedera Helix 
Mitchella repens Vinca minor 
Lonicera Periclymenum Epigea repens 
Best vines for trailing along steep banks: 
Rosa Wichuraiana Convolvulus sepium 
Lathyrus maritimus Lonicera Japonica 
Hedera Helix Lathyrus grandiflorus 
Vines that will stand a lot of neglect. This 
class, however, responds as readily as any other 
to good treatment: 
Lonicera (all varieties) Wistaria Chinensis 
Ampelopsis tricuspidata Boussingaultia baselloides (Madeira 
Actinidia arguta vine) 
Lathyrus latifolivus 
Best flowering vines for a sunny veranda. 
The idea should be to get vines that also look 
well when not in flower: 
Tecoma grandiflora Climbing roses (Wichuraiana type) 
Clematis (large-flowered) Jasminum officinale 
Hydrangea petiolaris 
Flowering vines for a shady veranda. Any 
of these vines will stand a sunny location, but 
the ones just mentioned are not so good in the 
shade as these: 
Cobea scandens Wistaria Chinensis 
Lonicera Heckrotti Celastrus scandens 
Akebia quinata Clematis paniculata
