 baskets, with mottled and marbled 

 crimson and green foliage. 20 cts..

Clematis Indivisa. 



This is not a new species, but 

 one that is rarely met with, and 

 which is worthy of extended culti- 

 vation. Not being hardy, it re- 

 quires the protection of a cool 

 greenhouse, and may be said to 

 be one of the most valuable of all 

 climbers for growing under glass. 

 Its flowers, which are pure white 

 and from 1 h to 2 inches in diameter, 

 are produced in panicles frequently two feet long, 

 and a well-established plant during the early spring 

 months is simply a mass of bloom ; the flowers' 

 can be used to good advantage in a cut state. The 

 plant is evergreen and at all times attractive.
