AMPE,LOPSIS ENGELMANNI 
This is the clinging form of the well-known Virginia Creeper, and was intro- 
duced by ns several seasons ago. The leaves are much thinner and smaller than in 
the ordinary variety, and the whole plant lacks the coarseness that characterizes the 
^. quhiquefolia, ancl it clings to walls like the ivy. The fall coloring is e.xceedingly 
brilliant, aiid in every way it is \astly superior to the common form, which is not used 
where the new \ ariety is known and can be had. A fine stock ready for fall delivery.
