PICTURESQUE GARDENS 
The Dutchman’s Pipe Vine 
Below we illustrate the value of 
Aristolochia Sipho, one of our best 
foliage climbers for verandas, pergolas,

Vines as Festoons 
Among pretty adornments of ver-

festoons are the borders of lawns, 
driveways or walks, and either at the 
base or the summit of a terrace. The 
pillars or posts may be of either stone

chains. The height of the posts and 
chains should be suited to the situ-

be used for permanence, or annual 
vines may be utilized for one season.
