HENDERSON’S PICTURESQUE GARDENS 
A Rose -Covered Pillar 
Crimson Rambler is the Rose illus- 
trated above, trained against the portico 
pillar, and it is eminently adapted for 
such situations. The luxuriant green 
foliage gemmed with large clusters of 
double crimson flowers is very effective. 
Ampelopsis Veitchii is the vine clinging 
to the walls. 
The Clematis for Wall Decoration 
The white - flowering vine illustrated below is 
Clematis paniculata, one of our most useful deco- 
rative climbers, as our various illustrations of it 
for different uses will show. It is perfectly hardy 
and a rapid, luxuriant grower, gracing with artistic- 
beauty whatever support it may be given — verandas, 
walls, trees, summer-houses, fences, etc. The myriads 
of fragrant white star-like flowers are followed by 
clusters of feathery seeds that are very ornamental.
