140 A LITTLE GARDEN THE YEAR ROUND 



es across, often attaining a greater flower 

 breadth. The Belle of Woking of the Florida 

 type produces bright vermilion blossoms, very 

 attractive in form. The Jackmanii Clematis 

 ranges from snow white to deep purple and a 

 group of these properly disposed in a garden 

 produces a truly delectable feature and one 

 that cannot fail to evoke wonderment and ad- 

 miration. 



The home garden-maker will find such spe- 

 cies of the Clematis as C. paniculata invaluable 

 for obtaining permanent effects. Few vines 

 —certainly no flowering vine that may be 

 grown in all parts of the country — offers so 

 many advantages as does the Clematis as a dec- 

 orative growth for lattice-work and treillage. 

 In all the present architectural trellis-work the 

 light and airy effect requires, where vines are 

 used as accessories to its decoration, that these 

 vines also be light and airy in appearance. It 

 is not the true province of well-designed trellis- 

 work to serve as a support to massive vine- 

 stems, such as that of the Wistaria, except 

 where the treillage is of more than ordinary 

 height, strength and breadth. Where a heary 

 lattice may support heavy appearing vines.
