THE PERGOLA IN ENGLISH GARDENS.

season of bloom might begin with Wistaria, or Bobinia hispida, a capital 

 shrub for this use ; then in full summer would come white Jasmine and, 

 later, Bignonia radicans. Wistaria, if allowed to grow at will, covers a 

 very large space, but if rather closely pruned it can be kept within bounds 

 and flowers with astonishing freedom. 



The Ayrshire and rambling Roses are beautiful in their season on a 

 verandah, but they have the disadvantage of being for one season only, 

 and they cover so much space that but little room is left for any other 

 plants.
