This magnificent flowering climb- 

 ing vine grows in favor and popularity 

 each year ; our friends and customers 

 in all parts of our own country and 

 Canada constantly expres<;ing their 

 satisfaction and delight with the Ne7v 

 Mag7iolia-scented A/oon-F/ozve?-, we 

 have again prepared an enor- 

 mous stock of splendid plants, 

 all propagated from well- 

 ripened blooming wood, grown 

 in the open air on our grounds. 

 We, therefore, guarantee every 

 plant we send out as being the 

 TRUE 3tAGN()I.T4-SCENTKD 

 MOON-FLOWER, sure to 

 bloom the first season. The 

 plant is a remarkably strong and rapid 

 grower; a single vine has been known 

 to cover twenty-five square feet in a 

 very short time. It is a wonderfully 

 profuse bloomer ; upwards of a thou- 

 sand Buds and Flowers a re/requentlv 

 see7i on a single vine. It will grow in 

 any ordinary situation. The flowers 

 are quite large, being four to six 

 inches in diameter, and of a beautiful 

 silvery or moon-like whiteness; they 

 are delightfully perfumed, with a rich 

 Magnolia odor, and are open itl great- 

 est profusion in the evening and on 

 cloudy days. A Moon-Flower Vine, 

 in full bloom on a moonlight evening m 

 Summer, is indeed an object of lovely 

 beauty; the illustration gives a good 

 idea of the general effect, but it must 

 be seen to be fully appreciated. At the 

 low price offered, we expect this 5«/^r(5 

 Novelty ivill be inchided in every 

 order.
