124 DWYEE'S GUIDE 



flowering, it has a most magnificent foliage of rich, tiandsome, glossy- 

 green. In fact, we consider this fully as valuable and interesting as the 

 flowers. One who has a few vines of the Honeysuckle is always prepared 

 to make their room cheerful. We believe it is going to become the most 

 prominent climbing vine. It can be trained to climb all over the piazza, 

 to which it adds great beauty. Retaining its foliage until February 

 makes it very desirable for winter landscape. 



Lonicera Halleana (Hall's Japan.) — An almost evergreen honeysuckle 

 of the greatest value, being entirely hardy, and of strong, vigorous 

 growth. The flowers are exceedingly fragrant, of pure white, changing 

 to yellow. Blooms here from June to September. 



Lonicera Aurea Reticulata (Japan -Gold-Veined). — A beautiful variety, 

 of moderate growth. This variety is especially desirable on account of 

 its beautiful winter foliage. Flowers large and peach colored. Blooms 

 in June and July. 



Lonicera Punicera (Scarlet Trumpet). — A well-known, strong, grow- 

 ing vine; continuous bloom; flowers scarlet, succeeded by red berries; 

 suitable for stump and trellis. 



Lonicera Sempervirens (Monthly Fragrant or Dutch Honeysuckle). — ■ 

 Showy flowers of red and yellow, delightfully fragrant; continues to 

 tloom a long time. Season June and July. 



Ampelopsis Veitchii (Boston Ivy). — Probably no climber has been 

 so generally used for the last few years. The leaves of this beautiful 

 climber overlap one another closely, changing in the Fall to the most 

 beautiful tints, remaining so until they drop. It clings to wood, stone or 

 brick, requiring no other support than a smooth surface, to which it 

 clings with tenacity. The most unsightly buildings are made picturesque 

 by its use. Many residences are covered with it, to whch it lends an aii 

 of elegance. 



Ampelopsis Quinquefolia (American Ivy or Virginia Creeper). — Very 

 well-known and appreciated; of luxurious, vigorous growth, and owing to 

 its ivy-like tendrils, valuable for covering unsightly objects. 



Hedera Helix (English Ivy). — The ivy, being an evergreen not very 

 hardy and suffering from exposure to the winter sun, should be planted 

 on the north side of buildings or walls. It is very effective grown in 

 pots for inside decoration. 



CLEMATIS. 



Jackmanni. — The pioneer of the large flowered, improved Clematis, 

 and with few, if any equals, and no superiors. Vigorous, perpetual, very 

 profuse and constant. Flowers purple and large. 



Jackmanni Alba. — Similar to the preceding in all respects, except 

 that the flowers are pure white. 



Henryi. — One of the best of the lanuginosa type, and the best White 

 Clematis. Flowers occasionally during Summer and early Autumn. 



Panlculata. — This is a recent Japanese introduction and one of the 

 finest additions to our hardy climbers. It is a very strong, vigorous 

 plant, growing rapidly, and as easily grown as the Honeysuckle. Flowers 

 pearly white. 



Coccinea.^Very handsome, hardy climber, bearing bell-shaped red 

 flowers from June until frost. 



Crispa (Crisped Leather Flower). — July to September. Flowers
