The following have foliage, which, with their strong habit of growth, 

 makes the plants more noticeable than do their flowers, which, however, are 

 not unpleasing: 



Acanthus, Bocconia, Ferula, Geum, Rheum, Glaucium, Arundo, 

 Erianthus, Eulalia, Gynerium, Gunnera and Heracleum. 



A number of hardy climbers are also grown from seed in the same manner 

 as above directed: Mountain Fringe {Adlumia), Boston Ivy {Ampelopsis 

 Veitchii), Dutchman's Pipe {Aristolochia) Climbing Asparagus {Asparagus 

 Broussoneti), Trumpet Creeper (Bignonia), Clematis, Kenilworth Ivy, 

 Everlasting Pea (Lathyrus), Wistaria and Bitter-sweet (Celastrus). 



While all of the plants here mentioned are doubtless hardy in nearly 

 every section of Ontario, yet it is the part of wisdom not to take too many 

 chances, or to expose beautiful plants to too severe exposure, as they will 

 grow and bloom far better if a light covering of marsh hay, strawy manure 

 or similar material is given them.
