liloomer. Flowers large, of a beautiful 
creamy white, consisting generally of from 
6 to S spreading sepais Is a remarkably 
free and continuous bloomer, beginning with 
the earliest and holding on with the latest. 
One of the finest white varieties. June to Oct. 
Jackmannl. This variety bears a pro- 
fusion of large sized, intense violet purple 
(lowers, 6 inches across, richly veined and 
shaded with reddish purple. Is a rapid 
.grower; an early and abnndaiU bloomer; 
perfectly hardy and adapted to all kinds of 
culture ; is equally fme, either as a climbing 
or trailing plant, and is well adapted for 
covering up unsightly objects. Planted out

Madame Edouard Andre. New Red 
Clematis. An entirely distinct and most 
novel variety, and the nearest approach to a 
bright red ever sent out. Tlie plant is a 
strong, vigorous grower, being a hybi d of the 
popular Clematis Jackinanni, which it re- 
sembles in freedom of bloom, strong, vigor- 
ous growth, shape and size of Hower, but is a 
distinct, carmine-red color of a most pleasing 
shade, entirely dilTerent from other varieties. 
Mrs. George Jackmann. An English 
variety ; color white ; flowers single, large, 
some being 6 inches in diameter ; strong 
grower; hardy. 
Panlculata. This valuable white Clem- 
atis, a native of Japan, has, after a thorough 
trial of several years, proved entirely hardy. 
The deep, clear green foliage is uiuisualiy 
broad and healthy, and remarkably free from 
all insect enemies. The flowers' are pure 
white, often slightly tinged with cream, from 
three-i|uarters of an inch to an inch in di- 
ameter, star-shaped, and with a most pleas- 
ing and penetrating fragrance. They are 
borne in heads on stilT stems 4 to 6 inches 
long, from the a.\-ils of the leaves. The fra- 
grance is remarkable in its inteusitv, and is 
noticeable quite a distance For any situa- 
tion wliere a rapid-growing climber is needed, 
this will be found a very valuable plant. 
The late season of blooming is a strong point, 
as most other climbers have passed their 
flowering stage by the middle of .August, 
when this is just coming to perfection, and 
continues blooming nearly a month. 
Ramona. A new Ameriean seedling orig- 
inated in Newark, N. V. A very strong, 
rampant grower ; very hardy and a perpetual 
bloomer. The color of the flower is a very 
deep sky blue, very distinct and attractive ; 
flowers very large, many running as large as 
iS inches in circumference. I'eter Hender- 
son says : " It has tlie largest and most 
attractive flowers of any Clematis I have ever 
seen."

ering variety is wanted, and the customer j

adapted to his section, the order can be 
.given under this name.

Honeysuckle. 
Hall's Japan (l.oiiicera Halliaiia). This 
vine has the advantage that it will "grow" 
under almost any conditions. The flowers 
are yellow, changing to a pure white, and 
are fragrant and abundant from June to Sep- 
tember. It should be trained to wire netting 
or some other support, for if allowed to lie 
on the ground every branch will take root, 
and it becomes difficult to eradicate e.vcept 
by constant pulling and hoeing up of all 
suckers not desired. For a " quick grower, " 
plant Hall's Japan Honeysuckle. With a 
slight protection of leaves, straw or pine 
boughs, or by the vines lying on the ground, 
the leaves remain perfectly green all winter, 
but in full e.vposure they turn brown during 
the latter part of winter, and are anything 
but ornamental. This is a valuable shrub 
for covering dry or stook embankments, which 
are dilTicult to cover with grass. 
Monthly Fragrant)/,. Bilgica). Flowers 
red and p.ile yellow ; sweet scented ; blooms

Scarlet Trumpet, Monthly (L. semfier- 
vireiis). Flowers deep red, tnimpet-shaped. 
Flowers all summer. A native climfier, and 
appropriate for trellises and rock-work. 
For Honeysuckle, Upright Shrub, see under 
Ornamental Shrubs. 
Sprig of Honeysuckle. 
Ivy CHedkra). 
The evergreen sorts of Ivy ftoeii suffer in 
winter, if e.vposed to the sun, and should be 
planted on the north side of a building. 
English or Irish. Old, well known .sorts, 
used in covering the north side of buildings ; 
leaves deep green. 
Varlgated. ( Koiiihera variegata). 
Leaves small and pretty ; varieg.ated. 
Wistaria. 
Chinese Purple {Sinensis purpurea). 
One of the most elegant climbing vines 
known, and a very rapid grower after it gets 
thoroughly established, sometimes making 
twenty feet of wood in a single season. 
Bears long clusters of pale blue flowers in 
May and June, and also iu September. 
IC.vtrcmely hardy. Attains a larger size 
than any other climber. 
Chinese White (.SV)/,-«,t/,? alba.) DilTers 
from above only iu the color of its flowers, 
which are smaller and pure white, forming 
a striking contrast.
