CUMBERS. 



Ampelopsis Veitchii.— Boston or Ja- 

 panese Ivy — A most satisfactory and beau- 

 tiful climber; it is entirely hardy and can 

 adapt itself to any locality or exposure; 

 clings fast to stone, brick or wooden walls, 

 and is extensively used on residences, 

 churches, factories, etc., where in summer 

 it covers all with a perfect mat of dark- 

 green leathery foliage, which changes as 

 autumn approaches to brilliant crimson; 

 the foliage serves as a great protection to 

 buildings, the leaves lapping over like 

 tiles on a roof, preventing effectually 

 the rain from penetrating the walls. Strong 

 field grown plants, 25c. and 50c- each. 



Akebia Quinata— Japari Akebia. A 

 new twining climber, suitable For pillar or 

 trellis, handsome and distinct foliage, and 

 chocolate colored, fragrant flowers, very de- 

 sirable. 15c. each; larger size, 25c. and 50c. 

 each. 



Antigonon Leptopus. The Moun- 

 tain Beauty or Rosa Montana — A hand- 

 some climber of Mexican origin, of great 

 promise, but with reputation not yet fully 

 established. It appears to be quite hardy 

 where strong roots are deeply planted. 

 Flowers of a bright rose color, borne in 

 graceful racemes or clusters, with tendrills 

 at the end of the racemes. Outside of 



We have a varied Assortment of Shade Trees of every description.
