JIartip  Ornamental  ^ims 
LIMBING  Vines  are  as  necessary  to  the  comfort  and  beauty  of  a 
home  as  the  trees  and  shrubs  we  plant  about  it.  Indeed,  nothing 
so  quickly  tones  down  the  roughness  of  a  new  place  as  some  of 
our  rapid  climbers.  Before  the  trees  are  large  enough  to  afford 
either  shelter  or  coolness,  vines  will  hide  ugly  walls  or  fences  and 
screen  sunny  porches.    We  offer  the  most  desirable  hardy  sorts,  and 
recommend  a  free  use  of  them. 
ACTINIDIA  arguta  {A.  polygama).  This  Japan- 
ese vine  has  thick,  glossy  leaves  and  beautiful 
creamy  white  flowers  of  delightful  fragrance, 
borne  through  midsummer.  The  odd,  greenish 
fruits  which  follow  are  large  and  plum-shaped, 
edible,  with  a  fig-like  flavor.  One  of  the  most 
beautiful  vines  for  northern  climates.  25  cts. 
each,  $2.50  per  doz. ;  extra  size,  40  cts.  each,  $4 
per  doz. 
AKEBIA  quinata.  A  clean,  quick-growing 
Japanese  climber,  with  quaint  five-lobed,  nearly 
evergreen  leaves,  and  fragrant  dark  purple 
flowers.  Fine  for  porch  pillars,  arbors  and 
trellises.    25  cts.  each,  $2.50  per  doz. 
AMPELOPSIS.  The  American  Ivies.  These 
are  good  vines  for  covering  walls,  tree  trunks, 
etc.  They  are  perfectly  hardy,  grow  fast,  need 
little  care  or  training,  and  color  brilliantly  in 
fall.    A.  Veitchii,  the  JAPANESE  or  BOSTON 
Ivy,  clings  closely  and  tenaciously  to  supports 
of  any  sort,  forming  a  smooth  wall  of  glossy 
leaves.  A.  quinquefolia,  our  native  Virginia 
Creeper,  is  a  more  vigorous  form,  with  five- 
parted  leaves.  It  is  just  as  bright  in  autumn, 
but  does  not  cling  so  close  to  walls  and  is  more 
useful  for  lattice- work,  screens,  tree-trunks,  etc. 
Its  variety,  A.  q.  Engelmanni,  which  clings 
more  closely  and  grows  very  fast,  is  often  used 
for  covering  buildings,  etc.  A.  tricolor  has 
grape-like  leaves,  beautifully  marbled  with 
white,  pink  and  green.  The  four  varieties  are 
15  cts.  each,  $1.50  per  doz.;  extra-sized  plants, 
30  cts.  each,  ^53  per  doz. 
ARISTOLOCHIA  Sipho.    DUTCHMAN'S  PIPE. 
The  curious  pipe-shaped  brown  flowers  are 
attractive,  but  the  vine  is  grown  chiefly  for  its 
enormous  light  green  leaves,  which  so  quickly 
furnish  a  cool  shade.    50  cts.  each,  $5  per  doz.
