NOTHING finer than this Clematis has captured our gardens for inany a 
year. Its foliage is clean and glossy, and of a rich green. Its flowers 
are delicate, star-like in form, and purely white, borne in large panicles 
and fragrant to a degree that makes the bee "a constant lover; it runs in 
rampunt fashion, growing from twenty to thirty feet in a season after the 
first Summer. The seed pods of this Clematis are very effective. It is of 
the easiest culture, and will thrive almost anywhere, and is free from disease 
or insect troubles of any kind. Plant it for a porch or arbor vine, to clamber 
over old walls or ledges of rock, to cover tree stumps; in fact, anywhere 
where it is desired to grow a graceful and attractive vine. 
Clematis ^lamula* 
ANOTHER Clematis very similar to the above, but blooming several 
weeks earlier, producing great masses of fleecy, pure white flowers 
and attractive dark green foliage. 
The two Clematis noted are very attractive planted side by side. By 
planting them alternately along a fence or about a porch, the effect is very 
beautiful as Clematis Flamula blooms several weeks earlier than Paniculata 
making in combination with it, a long period of blooming. These two sorts 
seem to be free from the attacks of disease, and will thrive, even though the 
larger sorts like Jackmanii may fail.
