The improvement in this family within a few years, surpasses 

 anything we have in the hardy line. We have imported all the 

 new hybrids recently introduced in England, and ofi'er the follow- 

 ing selection. For varandahs, fences, trellises, etc., of moderate 

 height, they are most appropriate. A covering of leaves or litter 

 during the winter, will be needful in exposed situations.
