CREEPING VINES FOR COVERING GROUND UNDER TREES 

 AND IN SHADED PLACES. 



There is a constantly growing demand for an effective covering for bare places on lawns and 

 in places where the shade is too dense for the growth of lawn grass. In many places the effect of 

 bare earth in a lawn or border of grass turf is sufficient to mar the harmonious colorings and 

 appearance of the entire grounds. By the planting of the hardy creeping vines a solid covering can 

 soon be formed that obviates this unpleasant effect. 



The following are the best of the trailing vines of creeping habit used for this purpose. All can 

 be readily transplanted and easily grown. 



Prices for good strong plants or clumps, $2 and $3 per dozen; from $5 to $25 per 100, according 

 to size and variety. 



Special prices per 1,000 on application.
