CLEMATIS . . . 



A Vineful of Beauty 



Clematis is tlie loveliest of hardy flowering vines. Growing from 

 8 to 12 feet tall, they provide beautiful screens on porch, pole or 

 trellis. Culture is easy. Clematis likes its roots protected by a 

 cooling mulch and its foliage and flowers in the sun. Plant in a 

 rich, loose soil, using peat moss or other humus material, a handful 

 of bone meal and as much fertilizer as will fill a 3-inch pot in the 

 soil mixture. Plant with the crown an inch or so below the ground 

 level. Use plenty of water and be sure the drainage is good.
