A rapid growing, berry-bearing vine of great beauty. It is of vigorous 
growth and entirely hardy. It begins to bloom in the late spring and con- 
tinues blooming until frost. Following the flowers, the berries begin to form 
and increase in numbers until the Whole Vine is One Mass of Brilliant 
Scarlet Fruit, oblong in shape, and about as large as a cherry ; they remain 
perfect as late as February, so that from August until late in the winter, it 
will be a mass of brilliant color. 
THE CHINESE MATRIMONY VINE 
grows and thrives in any situation, either shade or sunlight, and will take 
root in any soil ; in fact nature has given it all the essentials for wide popu- 
larity. 
It is well adapted for covering walls, fences, arbors and trellises, but is 
perhaps most beautiful when pendent from rocks or walls. It is also used 
for hedges with very satisfactory results.
