+@) GLEMATIS. Larce FLowERING. Ge 
During recent years the Clematis has been subject to a fungoid disease which 
destroyed thousands of fine plants. This disease seemed to be confined to the imported 
plants, which constitute the major portion sold in the country, and to avoid it, we 
have secured a complete new stock of home-grown plants on their own roots, 
which, while not as large as the others, are infinitely better, being free from the fatal 
disease to which the others are subject.
