MAMMOTH-FLOWERED TRUMPET-CREEPER 



THIS is one of the most superb climbing vines in existence, 

 It is absolutely distinct, both in fohage and flower. Grows 

 with a rapidity and abandon that is nothing short of re- 

 markable, is perfectly hardy everywhere, having withstood 

 unprotected in our grounds a continued temperatui-e of 16 

 degrees below zero; while its large, showy flowers are produced in the 

 most amazing profusion, It will give absolute satisfaction. For covermg 

 unsightl}'' places, stumps, dead walls, fences, or for training over a porch 

 or trellis; in fact, wherever a beautiful climbing vine is needed, it is 

 unequalled. The flowers are trumpet shaped, of large size, fully 3 inches 

 long, and borne profusely in clusters of 25 to 35 each, for several weeks 

 during the growing season. The color is warm orange-red. The foliage 

 is exceedingly beautiful, rich, dark green, shining as if varnished like 

 that of the CamelHa. Kesists all insect attacks. Does equally well in 

 sun or shade, and likes a rich loamy soil. As a quick , free-blooming and 

 absolutely hardy climbing vine, it will be found hard to beat. Do not 

 confuse it with the old-fashioned Trumpet-Creeper. It is as far superior 

 to it as the American Beauty Rose is to the old-fashioned single rose. Try 

 a few plants of it.
