AMPELOPSIS VEITCHII. 



rely hardy in the most exposed places 

 attaining a height of 20 to 30 feet in 

 two or three years, clinging to stones, 

 brick or wood work with the great- 

 est tenacity. Tl is a great protection 

 to houses, as the leaves lapping over 

 each other like slates on a roof 

 effectually prevent rain from pene- 

 trating the walls. For covering dead 

 trees, gate posts, boundary walls, 

 verandas, etc., it has no equal, while 

 its rapid growth and tenacious cling- 

 ing qualities make it a most desirable 

 plant for slaying up terraces. In the 

 summer the foliage is a rich shade of 

 green, but in the fall it assumes the 

 most gorgeous tints of scarlet, crim- 

 son and orange, so dazzling as to be 

 seen at a great distance. Price, 

 $10.00 per 100; $90.00 per 1000.
