EVMERLASTINGS 
The Everlasting Flowers 
are justly very popular, not 
only for their Summer display 
in the garden, but will retain 
their beauty for years if cutas 
soon as they come into full 
bloom, tied in small bunches, 
and dried slowly in the shade, 
with the heads downward to 
the stems straight.

One of the most interesting and useful class of garden 
lants, and this list I believe embraces the most popu- 
ar and satisfactory varieties. Many a trellis, fence, 
tree-stump, or veranda, otherwise unattractive, can 
be made beautiful by planting them. 
AMPELOPSIS.—Japunese Ivy, or Miniature Virginia 
Creeper. An introduction from Japan which has 
proven entirely hardy. It grows as rapidly as the

leaves are small on young plants, which at first are 
of an olive green brown color, changing to bright 
scarlet in the Autumn.
