Clematis paniculata 
Vines 
Ampelopsis 
Engelmanni. A clinging form of Ameri- 
can Ivy, but shorter jointed tlian Quinque- 
folia. A rapid grower, often climbing lo 
feet in a single season. The best vine 
known for covering stone or briclc worli. 
A. Quinquefolia( American Ivy, or Vir- 
ginia Creeper). The common Five- 
leaved Ivy, or Virginia Creeper. 
Veitchii. Japan Creeper; Boston 
Ivy. Leaves smaller than those of 
the American, and overlap one 
another, forming a dense sheet of 
green. The plant is a little tender 
while young, and requires protection 
the first winter; but once established 
there is no further risk. It grows 
rapidly and clings to wall or fence 
with the tenacity of ivy; the foliage 
is very handsome in summer, and 
changes to crimson-scarlet in autumn. 
For covering walls, stumps of trees, 
rockeries, etc., no plant is so useful. 
For the ornamentation of brick 
and stone structures, it can be 
specially recommended. 
Bittersweet 
\ twining vine of very rapid 
growth; waxy green, singlc- 
lobed leaves; bright scarlet berries. 
Perfectly hardy and very beautiful. 
Clematis 
Paniculata. A great novelty 
from Japan, It has proved to be 
one of the most desirable, useful 
and beautiful of hardy vines, being a 
lu.xuriant grower, profuse bloomer, and 
possessing fine foliage. It is particularly 
useful for covering verandas, |)illars and 
fences, where a trellis or support can be 
provided for it to climb on. The flowers 
are of medium size, very pretty and fra- 
grant, and produced in greatest profusion
