HENDERSON'S 

 EVER-BLOOMING 



Honeysuckle, 



Lonicera Hendersonii. Large clusters of yellow trumpet-shaped blooms, chang- 

 ing the second day to orange-red on every young twig throughout the entire 

 growing season, thus becoming a true ever-bloomer. Both colors, red and 

 yellow, show clearly in each cluster as long as it lasts. The plant is a healthy 

 grower, with a tendency to climb very high. It makes a good companion with 

 the Chinese Honeysuckle, on account of the great profusion of its brilliant flow- 

 ers. The clusters are larger and longer than the ordinary Honeysuckle, are 

 borne on longer stalks, hold better, and are valuable for cut flowers. (See cut )
