CLEMATIS PANICULATA. 
CLEMATIS PANICULATA. 
One of the most beautiful of our hardy-flowering vines. The flowers 
are pure white, and are borne in great panicles or clusters of bloom, 
fairly covering the plant, so that it is a mass or sheet of fleecy white. 
These clusters are borne on long slender stems, which stand out boldly 
from between the glossy green leaves, and the gentlest breeze causes 
wavy crests of white to flow gently over their surface. 
is delicious, resembling the English hawthorn blossoms, and is so sub- 
tile and penetrating that a large plant in bloom will fill the air with 
fragrance. It begins to bloom late in August or early in September, at 
a time when most other hardy climbers are out of bloom, an inestimable 
advantage. It is astrong, rapid grower, quickly reaching a height of 
from 15 to 20 feet, and spreading out when trained to wires or string. 
It is perfectly hardy in all sections of the country, and we can unhesi- 
tatingly say that it is, in our opinion, the most valuable among hardy 
climbing vines. (See cut.) Price, 30c. each, $2.00 per doz., $12.00 per 100,

CLEMATIS HENRYII. 
A pure white, large-flowering variety, of fine form, and recognized 
as by far the finest of the single white sorts. Itis a much stronger 
grower than most of the other varieties, and is entirely hardy. Excellent 
for cemeteries, or wherever a hardy climber is desired. Large, strong 
plants, 50c. each, $6.00 per doz. ; 2d size, 40c. each, $4.00 per doz. 
CLEMATIS LUCIE LEMOINE. 
This variety is distinct from the above in form, it being perfectly 
double, like a rosette. It is sweetly fragrant, and equally hardy and 
vigorous with the others. No collection is complete without it. Price, 
1st size, large plants, 50c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 2d size, 40c. each, $4.00 
per doz. 
CLEMATIS, LARGE FLOWERING, ASSORTED. 
In addition to those mentioned above, we can supply double blue, 
single blue, lilac, lavender and many intermediate shades, all strong 
plants. Price, 40c. each, $4.00 per doz. 
CLEMATIS COCCINEA. 
Bright vermilion scarlet has been a color hitherto unknown in Clem- 
atis, but in this sort we have that color which, when placed in contrast 
with the blue, purple and white kinds, has a most striking effect. The 
form of the flowers is different from the others preceding ; they are 
about 114 in. long, 1 in. thick at the base, round and tapering to 14 in. 
at the neck. The petals, four in number, are curved back so as to re- 
veal the yellow interior of the flowers. It is equally hardy as the other 
well-known sorts, $1.25 per doz., $10.00 per 100. 
CLEMATIS CRISPA. 
Although a native of the Southern States, it is entirely hardy. Like 
all the other Clematis. it is a rapid climber and profuse bloomer. The 
flowers are bell-shaped, purplish blue, and emit a rich fragrance. 
Price, $1.00 per doz., $8.00 per 100. 
CLEMATIS FLAMMULA. 
“Fragrant Virgin's Bower.” This is an old and well-known species, 
entirely distinct from the above; flowers pure white, deliciously fra- 
grant. The plants attain a height of twenty feet, and, when trained 
on trellis work and in full bloom, look like a mass of snow. The odor is 
perceptible at a distance of 200 yards. Hardy. $1.00 per doz., $8.00 
per 100. 
CLEMATIS JACKMANITI.
