Cobea Scandens 
“Cathedral Bells” 
Here is a very beautiful, 
rapid-growing free-flower¬ 
ing vine too much neglect¬ 
ed. It starts readily from 
seeds, planted edgewise, and 
will grow 30ft. in a season, 
producing large graceful, 
showy purple and white 
bells throughout summer 
and autumn. Both foliage 
and flowers are surpassing¬ 
ly attractive. This vine has 
no enemies, and wjll grow 
in sun or shade. It is a per¬ 
ennial south, and will last 
for years. In the north it 
is grown as an annual. It 
also makes a fine pot-plant 
for winer-blooming when 
given a sunny window. 
Purple, White, or Mixed.
