BERBERIS (Barberry)

 trimming. The leaf is small and rounded, plant branching, has not the stiff or 

 formal effect that the California Privet has. Two-year, eighteen to twenty-four 

 inches, branched, 10 cts. each; 75 cts. per dozen, postpaid; by express, purchaser to

TENDER VINES AND CLIMBERS 



These Make a Rapid Growth and Bloom Throughout the Summer; Are Very Showy 

 THE WONDERFUL GIANT MOONFLOWER (Ipomea Maxima) 

 A Giant in Growth and Flower and Wonderfully Fragrant. — This grand new 

 Moonflower is a decided improvement over the old well-known variety Ipomea Grand- 

 iflora. The flowers are more than twice the size of the old variety, oftentimes meas- 

 uring from six to seven and one-half inches across, and are produced in such 

 wonderful profusion that they completely cover the vine with a veil of glistening 

 white. Its growth is very rapid when planted in good rich light soil, nothing to equal 

 it as a tender vine for porch and lattice shading. Fine plants, 15 cts. each. 

 New Moonflower, HEAVENLY BLUE — This makes a splendid companion plant to the 

 White Moonflower. It is equally rapid in growth, and a ranch freer blooming 

 variety than the white one. The blooms come in clusters of five to twelve, and at 

 times almost hide the vines. The flowers are the most heavenly blue, with reddish- 

 purple rays, and six inches across. Nothing is more beautiful. 10 cts.

 Moonflower from its rare peculiarity of blooming best at night and on dull cloudy 

 days, flowers pure white in great profu.sion. 10 cts. each.
