TRAILING VINES FOR COVERING GROUND 

 IN SHADED PLACES. 



There Is a Constantly Growinc; 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 Strong Plants or clumps, $2 and $3 per dozen ; from $5 to S25 per 100 according to size 

 and variety, and specially low prices per 1,000 on application.
