Ornamental Shrubs and Flowering Plants, continued 
Yucca filamentosa. An interesting and tropical apnearing plant which will endure 
any of our Northern winters and is therefore valuable for those localities where 
flowering plants are scarce. It is an evergreen perennial, throwing up in the middle 
of the summer flower-stalks 3 feet in height, bearing a profusion of creamy white, 
bell-shaped blossoms. One of the most beautiful plants for the lawn. 2-ycar plants, 
50 cts. each. 
CLIMBING VINES 
Trumpet Flower. A splendid vine, vigorous and hardy, and a very rapid grower, 
well adapted for covering unsightly objects. The flowers are magnificent, being fully 
,4 to 5 inches long and in clusters. 25 cts. each. 
Wistaria (Chinese). A most beautiful climber of rapid growth, when well established 
growing at rate of 15 or 20 feet in a season, and producing long, pendulous clusters 
of pale blue flowers, resembling in size and shape a bunch of grapes; sometimes gives 
a second crop of flowers in the fall. 2-year plants, 50 cts. each. 
Clematis Paniculata. This wonderful flower blooms in September. It is one of the 
finest of hardy climbers, with handsome foliage, of very vigorous, rapid growth, and 
produces in late summer dense sheets of medium-sized pure white flowers of the most 
pleasing fragrance. Each branchlet is thickly set with these showy flowers and al- 
together produce a most gorgeous sight. This is a new Japanese plant and perfectly 
hardy and finely adapted to use for any covering purpose. Strong, field-grown, 50 cts. 
Clematis Jackmani. This is perhaps the best known of the newer fine perpetual 
Clematis, and should have credit of the great popularity now attending this 
family of beiutiful climbers. The plant is free in its form of growth and an 
abundant and successional bloomer, 
producing flowers until frozen up. The 
flowers are large, of an intense violet- 
purple remarkable for its velvety rich- 
ness. Has no superior. July to Octo- 
ber. Strong, field-grown, 75 cts. each. 
Clematis, Madame Edouard Andre 
(The Red Clematis). An entirely dis- 
tinct and most novel variety, and the 
nearest approach to a bright red ever 
sent out. The plant is a strong, vigor- 
ous grower, being a hybrid of the popu- 
lar Jackmani, which it resembles in 
freedom of bloom, strong, vigorous 
growth and shape and size of flower, 
but is a distinct carmine-red color 
of a most pleasing shape, entirely dif- 
ferent from all other varieties. Strong, 
field-grown, 75 cts. each. 
Henryi. Best white variety. Fine, large 
creamy white flowers. Strong grower; 
very hardy; perpetual bloomer. Strong, 
field-grown, 75 cts. each.
