Although the hanging vases are gen- 

 erally used for vines, nearly all varieties 

 of flowers may be used in these cpntainers. 

 Trees of all kinds are used in this way. 

 As a tree grows tall and above all other 

 vegetation, it may be hung, which places it 

 in a higher position than when standing. 



Baskets with handles, which are always 

 available, will be found very beautiful 

 flower holders, even when the handle alone 

 is used as shown by the cut on page 75; a 

 vine of any kind may be twined about the 

 handle. Bittersweet or morning glories are 

 exquisite in this way.
