otherwise. Many have very handsome flowers, while others are attractive for their beautiful foliage. We

Il A. Veitohii {tricuspidata) . A superb vine, and 
constantly growing in esteem. The leaves are 
of dark, rich green, very glossy, and disposed 
on established plants in an overlapping regu- 
larity that is astonishing. In the fall, the foli- 
age assumes tints of brilliancy, varying from 
light scarlet to the deepest crimson. When 
fairly established, the species is of rapid 
growth, and its tendrils fasten the vine firmly 
to any surface, clinging even to stone or brick.
