HARDY VINES AND CLIMBERS. 
AMPELOPSIS. 
Quinquefolia. ( Virginia Creeper.) One of the finest vines for covering 
walls, trunks of trees or any unsightly object. The foliage becomes 
rich crimson in autumn. Strong plants, 20 cts. each, $1.50 per doz. 
Veitchii. (Boston Ivy.) One of the handsomest clinging vines in cultiva- 
tion. The leaves are three lobed and overlap one another, forming a 
dense sheet of green, changing to rich crimson in autumn. The plant 
is tender when young and should be protected the first two or three 
years. Strong plants, 35 cts. each. 
DUTCHMAN’S PIPE VINE. (Aristolochia Sipho.) 
One of the handsomest and most satisfactory vines for this climate, for 
covering verandas, trellises, fences, etc. There is nothing to equal it. After 
becoming established the vines grow from 10 to 20 feet in a single season. 
They are remarkably free from insect pests and are perfectly hardy without 
protection ; the 
leaves are heart 
shaped, deep green 
in color and are 
frequently 10 to 12 
inches in diameter. 
The flowers are of 
a peculiar greenish 
brown color and 
resemble in shape a 
crooked stem pipe. 
Strong plants, 60 
cts. each. 
Strong 2-year-old 
plants, 76c. each. 
Strong 3-year-old 
plants, 1.00 each. 
CLEMATIS. 
These are among 
the most beautiful 
and satisfactory 
plants grown. They 
can be used in al- 
most any situation, 
either on arbors, 
verandas or trellis- 
es, but to be seen 
to the best advan- 
tage they should 
be trained to indi- 
vidual trellises in 
the garden; they 
require a rich soil, 
and should be
