Ornamental Vines 



CLIMBING vines are as necessary to the comfort and beauty of a home as the trees and shrubs 

 we plant about it. They mature quickly and tone down the stiff, bold angles of new buildings, 

 and give shade and flowers over verandas and trellises. On steep slopes and banks they prevent 

 erosion. They ramble over unsightly, neglected places, and make them beautiful with fragrant and bril- 

 liant flowers. Vines are stronsr. robust errowers that reouire littlp nttpntinn nfVipr tho-n fr. r>,-noc.i*r»r.oii-i7
