The Cardinal Climber 



(Ipomoea Q^uamoclit Hybrida.) 



"We consider this the most beautiful, brilliant and 



distinct annual climber introduced in many years. 

 Result of a cross between Ipomoea Quamoclit, the 

 Cypress Vine and Ipomoea Coccinea, or Star Glory. 

 It is a strong and rapid grower, attaining a height of 

 30 feet or more with beautiful, deeply laciniated foliage 

 and literally covered with a blaze of circular fiery 

 cardinal-red flowers from mid-July till frost. The 

 flowers are about 1^ inches in diameter, and are borne 

 in clusters of seven to eleven blooms each. Like other 

 Ipomoeas, it delights in a warm, sunny situation and 

 good soil. The seed may be started indoors in April 

 and planted out as soon as the weather is warm, or 

 may be sown out of doors as soon as danger from cold 

 weather is past. Packets containing 10 seeds each, 

 15c., 2 pkts. for 25c.
