THE AUSTRALIAN PEA TINE. This climber, though well known in 

 California, is not listed in any of the eastern catalogues. It has great powers of 

 endurance, standing drought and heat with impunity, and should be hardy in the 

 east. It is invaluable where rapid growth and an inpenetrable screen are desired. 

 The seeds germinate readily, and the plants grow very rapidly, beginning to 

 bloom when quite young; the foliage is very pretty and graceful: the flowers are 

 pea-shaped, the buds pink, when full blown the flowers are pink shaded mauve; 

 the plant is completely covered with blossoms in California at all times. Pkt 10c.
