CLEMATIS. 



Well known and universally admired climbers, some 

 of the varieties being remarkable for the beauty and 

 fragrance of their blossoms. Fine for covering arbors, 

 verandas, etc., as they cling readily to almost any ob- 

 ject. Most of the kinds are hardy, herbaceous peren- 

 nials, but some little protection in northern latitudes, 

 through winter, is advised. Will do well in any good 

 garden soil. Seed should be sown in fall or winter in 

 shallow boxes, as they generally remain dormant a long 

 time even in green-house. In the spring, when plants 

 are one to two inches high, transplant into boxes or 

 small pots before setting out in open ground in May. 

 Clematis, Virginiana (Virgin's Bower), a rapid 

 climber, with white blossoms, growing twenty 

 feet in a single season; is hardy, dying down 

 in winter, but starting up again in the spring. 

 It is equally remarkable when in fruit, the 

 long feathery tails of the fruit separating like 



tufts of wool ic 



" Verticellata, produces beautiful blue flowers 

 from June to September, on long peduncles 

 from the axis of the leaves ; rather bell- 

 shaped and nodding. Grows eight to ten feet 

 in a season 10
