THE NEW HARDY PASSIFLORA * * * ■ + * *

"AMERICA. 



Bears continuously— Red, White and Blue Flowers, 4 inches across. 



It has always been somewhat of a mystery to us why the improved varieties of Passifloras 

 were not among the most popular of climbing vines. They are easy to get along with, being 

 rapid growers, free and continuous bloomers, and producing flowers of remarkable beauty in 

 great profusion throughout the entire growing season. We have had varieties recommended 

 to us as being hardy, but, until the advent of this superb variety, none have shown them- 

 selves to be entitled to that distinction. It is by 

 all odds the best Passifiora in cultivation. Were 

 it unworthy of our recommendation we would cast 

 it aside. If you want one of the best of all hardy 

 climbers, take our advice, plant Passifiora "America." 

 America will prove a revelation to all who plant 

 it. Alongside of the ordinary varieties, it is head 

 and shoulders above them. The flowers are of ex- 

 traordinary size, 4 inches across, and in color are 

 red, white and blue — a gorgeous blending of colors. 

 It does what no other Passion Flower will do — 

 blooms the first year, producing its lovely flowers 

 throughout the entire growing season. Remark- 

 ably free flowering and a strong, rapid climber of 

 most attractive foliage. It is perfectly hardy, and, 

 once planted, it grows more beautiful year after 

 year. It is a grand novelty, and without it you 

 will miss a genuine bargain. 



We offer strong plants, 20 cts. each ; 3 for 50 cts.; 

 7 for $1 ; 12 for $1.50, postpaid by Mail.
