three-lobed leaves, and small clusters of dark colored fruit. 35c. 
CLEMATIS. Virgin’s Bower 
None among hardy perennials exceed in beauty and effectiveness the finer sorts of Clematis. As aclimber for the 
veranda, a screen for fences, for pillars along the garden walks, for training on walls or arbors, in masses on rockwork, or 
cultivation in pots, it has no rival among strong-growing blossoming plants. The Clematis should be grown in rich, deep, 
sandy loam, and be well mulched with rotten manure in winter. The richest sheets of bloom and largest flowers are 
obtained where it has partial shade and a liberal supply of water at the roots. 
After many years’ experience we have come to the conclusion to grow only a few varieties which have proved worthy 
of general cultivation. The leading and best varieties are Jackmanni, Henryi, Mme. Edward Andre, paniculata and 
ieboldii. 
C. Henryi. Very large, fine form; free grower and bloomer; creamy white. $1.00. 
. Hybrida Sieboldii. Large, bright blue flowers; fine. $1.00. 
. Jackmanni. Large, intense violet purple; remarkable for its velvety richness; free in growth and 
an abundant and successive bloomer. $1.00. 
. Madame Edward Andre. Flowers large, of a beautiful bright velvety red, very free-flowering, 
and continuous bloomer. $1.00. 
. paniculata. From Japan. It has proved to be one of the most desirable, useful, and beautiful of 
hardy garden vines, being a luxuriant grower, profuse bloomer, and possessing fine foliage. It is 
particularly useful for covering verandas, pillars, fences, where a trellis or support can be provided 
for it to climb on. ‘The flowers are of medium size, very pretty and fragrant, and produced in 
the greatest profusion in late summer. We can recommend it in the strongest manner as one of 
the best vines to grow near the house; itmakes a growth of from 25 to 30 feet in a single season, 
and should be cut back to the ground each spring. 35c.
