CLEMATIS PANICULATA. 
A Japanese plant, recently introduced to this coun- 
try, and possessing unusually attractive merits. A 
vine of very rapid growth, quickly covering trellises 
and arbors with handsome, clean, glossy green foli- 
age. The flowers are of medium size, pure white, 
borne in immense sheets, and of a most delicious and 
penetrating fragrance. These flowers appear in late 
September, at a season when very few other vines 
are in bloom, this being an added merit of great 
consequence. The extreme rapidity of its growth, the 
showy foliage, beautiful and fragrant flowers borne 
so very freely, and its late blooming nature, united 
with an entire hardihood, serve to make this one of the 
very choicest of recent introductions, and indispen- 
sable to every private place. 15 cts.

I delicious fragrance, at times giving a pleasing banana- 
1 like odor. The flowers are produced in such a com-
