A Familiar Ampelopsis 



There are several species of ampelopsis with which Mr. 

 Burbank has worked extensively. The spray here shown is 

 the familiar Ampelopsis quinquefolia, commonly known as the Vir- 

 ginia Creeper, and sometimes spoken of as the "five-leaved ivy." 

 Mr. Burbank has performed interesting hybridizing ex- 

 periments with members of the family and has 

 produced some rather important new varie- 

 ties of crossbred ampelopsis.
