Ampelopsis Veitchii 
‘“‘Boston’”’ or ‘Japan Ivy”’ 
1082 A valuable climber. Entirely hardy in the most exposed places, often 
attaining a height of. 20 to 30 feet in two or three years from seed, 
clinging to stones, brick or wood work with the greatest tenacity. It 
is a great protection to walls, etc., as the leaves lapping over each 
other, shedrain. For covering dead trees, gate posts, boundary walls, 
etc., it has no equal. In the summer the foliage is a rich shade of 
green, but in the fall it assumes the most gorgeous tints of scarlet,

hardy perennials flowering from seed the-second year and thereafter. 
Produce in abundance large single, semi-double and double flowers 
3 to 5 inches across, in an endless variety of colors, from maroon and 
brightest scarlet to flesh-pink and from lilac to purple, Some are 
mottled, striped, ringed, etc. For cutting they are unsurpassed and 
in the garden they flower until after frost; Anemone seed should be 
gently rubbed with sand or fine, friable soil, and both seed and soil 
may be thinly sown over the bed, which, as a finish, should be lightly 
beaten with the back ofa spade. ‘The situation must be shaded from 
direct sunshine, and frequent watering will be necessary. From seed 
sown in January or February under glass the plants should begin to 
bloom in September or October of the same year, and continue to 
flower until the following June. Seed may also be sown in June or 
July for plants to bloom in the succeeding year. (See Ulastnation)

Antirrhinum or Snapdragon 
Henderson’s Tall Giant Flowering 
These modern hybrid Antirrhinums have been elevated by popular favor 
from the ‘‘Snapdragon’’ rank of common flowers to a higher level. This 
marked change in the general estimation is the direct result of the improve- 
ments which have made the Giant Flowering Antirrhinum race so highly 
satisfactory for gardens, bedding, borders, pot culture, for house decoration 
forcing for winter cut flowers, etc. Their continuous-blooming qualities, 
ease of culture and independence of heat and drought, and pure, bright colors, 
should entitle them to a permanent place in gardens. Although perennials 
in the South, they do splendidly when grown as annuals in the North; spring 
sown seed produces flowering plants by July, which continue to bloom in 
increasing profusion until frost. The flowers are nearly double the size of the 
older sorts. When planted in beds the plants should be placed 9 inches apart 
each way, pinching out the tops—although it delays the beginning of flowering 
Aine ine plants to branch low and ultimately gives better results. (See
