RHODODENDRONS. 
The varieties of this grand race are now so numerous that we have only given a few of the most distinct kinds 
from our large collection of Hybrids, which we can furnish at 30s., 42s., and 60s. per dozen, or ^10 to ^25 
per 100. An effective mass can be made by backing up the named sorts with Ponticum and seedling varieties, 
which are cheaper.

CLEMATIS. 
These hardy and easily cultivated climbing plants should be found a place in every garden. Whether used for 
covering old walls, verandahs, rustic poles or pillars, or for bedding, they are unsurpassed. Nothing produces so 
grand and gorgeous effect as a well-flowered bed of the beautiful purple variety of Jackmanii , which produces its 
rich deep-coloured flowers in great profusion throughout the summer and autumn. 
The only secret of success in growing them is a good rich soil ; an annual mulching should be given of horse or 
cow manure, and during the growing season a few liberal soakings of liquid manure.
