Wild Cucumber Vine. 
The Quickest Climber for Arbors, 
Trellises, Fences, etc., known. Makes 
the most massive covering. 
We flo not offer this as a new va- 
riety. It is an old friend with iwiople 
in the country, but to city people it 
is little known, and those who are 
acquainted with it will agree with 
us when we say it is the quickest 
climber known, and it is undoubted- 
ly the best cUmlwr for coveriiig ve- 
randas, trellises, etc., never suffering 
from the heat, but retaining its fresh 
and lively green color, and, what is 
of prime importance, holding forth 
thcough the whole summer, whether 
hot or cold, wet or dry. never infested 
wit h insects and very profuse in 
bloom. It will sow itself and come 
up every year in the same place. 
Our illustration fails to give any idea 
of the beauty of this vine; it will 
grow easily 18 feet the first year.
