CLIMBING VINES 



These seeds are all put up in 10c packets 

 except where noted. 



ANTIGONON LEPTOPDS (Rosa Montana, Moun- 

 tain Vine)— One of the finest perennial climb- 

 ers of rapid growth with long racemes of 

 beautiful deep pink flowers. Sow in Febru- 

 ary to June in the open ground. Will flower 

 freely the first year. 



CANARY BIRD VINE — A dainty vine with 

 beautiful cut leaves. Produces delicate flow- 

 ers of clear canary yellow. Flowers resem- 

 ble a bird with expanded wings. Does well 

 in the shade. Planted March to June.

KUDZU VINE — A leguminous vine somewhat 

 resembling the Velvet Bean in appearance. 

 It is perennial and comes from the root each 

 spring and makes as much growth by about 

 the first of May as the Velvet Bean makes in 

 an entire season, and that on ordinary soil, 

 without fertilizer of any kind. When once 

 established Kudzu thrives as well on the 

 poorest sandy upland as on the best lands. 

 It gathers nitrogen from the air and conse- 

 quently is a soil improver. Kudzu may be cut 

 from two to four times during the season or 

 pastured. Plant February to July.
