Orriaraentgil Climbers. 



The climbers are rapidly increasing in popularity and favor. The strong and vigorous growing varieties are 

 well adapted to covering arbors, verandahs, fences, buildings, etc., and will produce both beauty and shade. Those 

 of finer and more delicate growth are particularly adapted to hanging baskets, vases, and similar purposes. It is 

 absolutely necessafy that the proper support be furnished in due time to climb upon, for if the plants are once 

 neglected it will be almost impossible to make them assume good habits. £(o hanging basket or vase is complete 

 without containing one or more climbing plants, which forms a beautiful drapery, which is necessary to make any 

 basket or vase look well .
