Hardy Vines 
Hardy Vines and Climbers beautify a home by covering banks and bare spots, and 
by giving comfortable shade and pleasing fragrance to the pergola and veranda. Most of 
them require some support, but the Ampelopsis, Hedera, etc., climb by aerial rootlets and 
will cling to brick, stone, or rough wood surfaces. These are very usei^ul for softening the 
rough corners of the house, and are of decided benefit to a wall inclined to be damp. 
The vines should be firrnly planted in a deep, rich soil, afterward watering thoroughly. 
An occasional top-dressing will make strong growth.
