THE DINGEB & CONARD COMPANY'S 



For training over buildings, piazzas, verandas or 

 trellises, the Wistaria is of superior excellence, and the 

 decorative features which their long, graceful, pendent 

 blossoms afford, particularly pleasing and effective. 

 The foliage is exceedingly rich and attractive and not 

 too dense — half concealing and half revealing the 

 object which it covers, which feature admits of a fine 

 artistic effect of detail. The different varieties are 

 entirely hardy, rapid growers and easy to cultivate. 

 They may be trained to a shrub form of habit by atten- 

 tion to pruning by cutting away the new growth for 

 several seasons. The illustration given will convey an 

 idea of the possibilities in the way of decoration which 

 these superb plants offer and their general appearance. 

 Our stock is of the best and consists of strong healthy 

 plants of the finest varieties in cultivation. 



Chinese White Wistaria. 



Plant Wistarias whenever you want a good tall- 

 growing vine to shelter high porches or second-floor 

 fronts. It grows strong and high, makes a pretty leafy 

 screen, not too dense, and is loaded with bloom in the 

 early Spring, just when you seem to need flowers and 

 shade jnost. There are several varieties of Wistarias ; 

 this is the finest of all; immense clusters; pure white 

 flowers, very sweet; extra-fine plants, grown in pots; 

 sure to bloom the first season. Price, 35 and 60 

 cts. each ; latter should go by Express when con- 

 venient, or, if by Mail, must be cut back. The most 

 beautiful effect is produced by planting the New 

 Chinese White with either of the rich Violet 

 Blues described below.
