THE HARDY 



CHINESE MATRIMONY VINE 



(Lyciam CWnense) 

 Is a most vigorous hardy climbing plant when 

 trained to an arbor, fastened to a fence, attached 

 to a tree, to the side of a house, the pillars of a 

 piazza or in any location where a hardy vigorous 

 climber is desired. It sends out numerous side 

 branches, so that it covers a great amount of space 

 in a short time, and every new growth is at once 

 covered with bright purple flowers, which are suc- 

 ceeded by brilliant scarlet berries nearly an inch 

 long, every branch being loaded with them ; the 

 contrast between the glossy, dark green foliage and 

 shining scarlet fruit is extremely beautiful. It 

 continues flowering and new berries are forming 

 from late spring until frost. The berries ripen in early 

 autumn and remain on the vine late into the winter. It 

 will grow and thrive in any situation, either shade or bright 

 sunlight, and will take root in any soil ; in fact, nature has 

 given it all the essentials for wide popularity. (See cut.) 

 Price, 1st size, extra strong 2-year-old plants, 30 cts. each,

 nificent, measuring from 3%
