Plant Vines In Unsightly Spots 
With their variance in color, their beauty of foliage and blossoms, their 
grace wherever used, vines frequently provide the finishing touches of any 
planting. Visualize the effect desired and train them accordingly to cover 
your walls and pilasters, your lattice or trellis, the pergola or laundry posts, 
the porch or portico, veranda or on the fence for shade, grace or flower and 
let them ramble in their plenitude—objects of beauty and a pleasure to the 
planter.
