300 California Privet plants arrived in 
splendid condition, and being so much 
finer plants than I expected, I desire to 
express my appreciation.

cold frames in March, this plant is in full bloom before the end of

season when the florists shop usually contains nothing but chrysanthe- 
mums. Packet, 10 cents; 3 packets, 25 cents.

WILD 
CUCUMBER 
VINE 
Hardy Annual Climber 
A quick growing climber. 
This is one of the quickest 
| growing of all the annual 
vines, and a great favorite. It 
is decidedly yraceful and 
pretty in general effect, as 
seen upon a trellis or a fence. 
Vines sometimes attain a 
length of 20 or even 380 feet in 
a season. The fragrant white 
flowers are followed by prick- 
ly seed pods. The pods or 
fruits are always interesting 
to children, “who love to 
make them burst.’ Makes 
' the quickest growth and 
shade of any vine I know of. 
Pht., 5 cts.; 44 oz., 15 cts.5 
Ml OZes 25 cts. 
WISTARIA 
Hardy Perennial Climber 
Of great value on arbors, 
trees or buildings. Bears great 
panicles of purple or white

spring. One of the most satis- 
\ factory of the hardy climbers.

Si blue and white Chinese sorts.
