FOUR GRAND LARGE-FLOWERED CLEMATIS. 



So large and beautiful in form and color of flowers, w 

 are so graceful and refined in habit, that too much can sea 

 Those here offered are all as hardy as oak trees, requirin 

 mass of bloom utterly impossible to describe. After care 

 catalogs, I have selected the following as decidedly the m 

 note the illustration above. The plants are all two years o 

 bloom freely the coming summer. 



HENRYI — The best variety, producing large, pure 

 white flowers. Its large, clear, ivory white flowers ap- 

 pear in great numbers throughout the summer and early 

 autumn. Wonderfully chaste and beautiful. 



JACKMANII — The best known and most popular of 

 the large flowered varieties. Its flowers are large, of a 

 rich, velvety violet-plum and are produced in such pro- 

 fusion as to form a veritable cloud of bloom. The popu- 

 larity of the Clematis is largely due to this superb va- 

 riety — the choicest vine in cultivation. 



Each, 30c; doz., $3.00. A set 



hich are produced in such great profusion, and the vines 

 rcely be said in favor of the finer varieties of Clematis, 

 g no protection and very little care to produce annually a 

 fully testing the scores of varieties named in the European 

 ost distinct and valuable of them all. Each one is a gem ; 

 Id, grown upon their own roots (not grafted), and will 



MME. BARON-VEILLARD— A strong grower and an 

 exceedingly free bloomer, growing more rapidly than its 

 parents, C. Jackinanii. It blooms later than other va- 

 rieties of its class and continues until frost. Flowers 

 very large and of rosy-lilac color. 



MME. EDOUARD ANDRE— Also of the Tackmanii 

 type and is the nearest approach to a true red Clematis 

 that has yet been produced. The flowers are very large, 

 usually six petaled, of a distinct, pleasing shade of car- 

 mine and are produced in bewildering profusion, 

 of the four varieties for $1.00. 



CLEMATIS PANICULATA. 



[apanese Clematis. 



The finest of all vines for airy grace 

 and beauty. It qviickly grows to a 

 height of 15 to 20 feet and spreads out 

 in all directions. In August and Sep- 

 tember, when most other vines have 

 ceased to bloom, it is completely cov- 

 ered with a sheet of fleecy white, made 

 up of numerous pure white, star-like 

 flowers on long stems, and so fragrant 

 that the air is perfum.ed to a great dis- 

 tance. Its masses of delightful bloom 

 remain until frost, and are succeeded by 

 tufted seed-pods. 



Two year roots, each, 15c; doz., 

 $1.50; 100, $8.00. 



Extra heavy roots, each, 20c ; doz., 

 $2.00; 100, $12.00. 



EUONYMUS. HEDERA HIBERNICA (Helix). 



RADICANS — A small unique and valuable climber and 

 trailer, with small, myrtle-like, glossy, evergreen foliage, 

 clinging to walls and buildings after the manner of ivy. 

 Its creeping habit renders it valuable for rockwork. 



RADICANS VARIEGATA— A variety with foliage 

 prettily variegated and margined with creamy-white and 

 light rosy-purple. 



Each, 15c; doz., $1.50; 100, $8.00. 



English or Irish I\'y. 



This well known favorite is useful for covering walls 

 and in rock gardening. Owing to its handsome, ever- 

 green, glossy foliage it is much used for covering graves, 

 particularly in shady situations, where grass will not 

 grow. Field grown plants, each, 20c; doz., $2.00; 100, 

 $12.00.
