HARDY CLIMBING PLANTS 



I 



ViSTARiA Sinensis 



Wistarias 



One of the best hardy climbers, producing their 

 great trusses of flowers in abundance during the 

 month of May with some scattering bloom in August 

 and September. They should be liberally fed when 

 first planted to give them a vigorous start. 

 Sinensis. The favorite variety, producing thou- 

 sands of pendulous clusters of delicate violet-blue 

 blossoms, richly perfumed. 

 — Alba. Of similar habit to Sinensis, with pure 



white flowers. 

 Price, either of the above strong plants, $1.00 each. 



Pueraria 

 Thunbergiana 



(Kudzu Vine) 



The most rapid growing vine in 

 cultivation, attaining, after once being 

 established, a height of 50 feet or more 

 in one season. Its foliage is large and 

 furnishes dense shade; it bears small 

 racemes of rosy-purple, pea-shaped 

 blossoms towards the close of August 

 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz. 



Vitis 



Henryana. A recent introduction 

 from China, with foliage simOar to 

 but not as large as the Virginia 

 creeper, the leaves being of greater 

 substance, and prettily varie- 

 gated. The ground color is deep 

 velvety-green, the midrib and 

 principal veins of silvery white. 

 The variegation is most pro- 

 nounced in the autumn, when the 

 green ground color changes to 

 red. 50 cts. each; S5.00 per doz.

HEDGE PLANTS

 ciduous hedge is wanted, nothing equals this beautiful Barberry.

 small, light green, and towards fall assume rich, brilliant colors, 

 the fruit or berries becoming scarlet. Absolutely hardy in all 

 parts of the country. Plant 12 to 15 inches apart. Extra 

 strong 3-year old plants, 18 to 24 inches high, 40 cts. each;
