TPOMEA MORTONII. 



The Ipomea Mortonii looks more 

 like a woodbine than a morning 

 glory, the leaf being a fine speci- 

 men of a deeply-cut palmate leaf. 

 The foliage is a very glossy dark 

 green and always free from any 

 pest or scale at any time of the 

 year. The blossom is a dark lav- 

 ender morning glory, three inches 

 in diameter, but the blooming is 

 scarce rather than profuse as with 

 many of the Ipomeas. 



It is without exception the fast- 

 est growing vine that I have known 

 and being an evergreen perennial 

 is most desirable. For those living 

 in rented houses, and yet anxious 

 to make the surroundings attract- 

 ive, no vine can excel this "Jack 

 the Beanstalk " for covering sheds, 

 barns, fences, trellises or porches. 

 A vine but three months old has 

 sent out runners over twenty feet 

 long, and is a thick mass of foliage 

 for more than six feet wide. 



Specimens of this attractive and 

 useful vine can be seen at the San 

 Diego Nursery, corner Fifth and C 

 streets, San Diego. . 



Or a strong plant will be mailed 

 to any address on receipt of 25 

 cents. Address
