GOLDEN-LEAVED AND HALLIANA HONEYSUCKLES ON A FENCE. 



Honeysuckles and Other Hardy Vines. 



Honeysuckles. — For real home vines, to be near you, climbing over your windows and doorways, there is nothing 

 prettier than fine, sweet-scented Honeysuckles; the foliage is pretty, neat and clean, the flowers almost continuous, and their 

 fragrance delicious. The varieties described below are the very best. 



Honeysuckle Hedges. — Some of our friends have conceived the idea of planting Honeysuckles along the division 

 fences, and it is wonderful what pretty hedges they make. Iron or wire fences are the best, but almost any kind is soon 

 covered with a mantle of living green, making a very pretty and cheap border for lawns, drives, parks, cemeteries, etc. Other 

 climbing vines will answer the same purpose, but the sweet-scented Honeysuckles are both fragrant and beautiful. They 

 should be planted two feet apart. Price, strong plants of the following varieties, by Express, $1.50 per doz.; ^12 per 100.
