THE DINGEE & OONARD COMPANY'S 



Fine English Clematis. 



The Clematis has advanced rapidly in public favor and is justly considered one of the most beautiful 

 climbers grown. The Jackmanni and other varieties of this class produce their beautiful flowers in such 

 profusion that the whole plant appears a sheet of bloom, as shown in the engraving. ThcClematis should 

 have good, rich ground, and if partially shaded so much the better. They are entirely hardy, but a light 

 covering of leaves or straw during Winter is desirable until fully established. Our Clematis are all on 

 THEIR OWN ROOTS ; therefore they cannot throw up wild shoots, as grafted plants are very apt to do. 

 We send fine, strong, well-rooted plants, certain to grow and bloom. •
