EXPERIMENT STATION REPORT. 45^ 



THE SIMPLE-LEAVED AMPEL.OPS1S. 



Specimens of the Ampelopsis cor data, kindly furnished by Pro- 

 fessor Kellerman, of Ohio University, have been grown for two 

 seasons as trellis plants upon the greenhouse. They are rapid- 

 growing vines, with a foliage resembling the smooth-leaved grapes, 

 which has the charm of holding on and remaining green for a month 

 after the leaves of the American ivy have become discolored and 

 fallen away. 



Seeds of the same species were sown in the greenhouse and the- 

 seedlings set this spring in the Experiment grounds. These made a 

 fine growth and are ready for setting as piazza covers the coming 

 season.
