Clematis - Virgin's Bower 
Besides the large-flowered Clematis there are several varieties 
producing smaller blooms or in large panicles. All are very 
desirable and most useful. Flammula and Montana are of strong 
growth, but their flowers are not fragrant like those of the 
Paniculata which really is one of the loveliest sweet-scented 
vines we have.

Clematis, Large Flowering 
No other climbing plant equals in attractiveness the beautiful 
large-flowering Clematis. Their requirements are somewhat 
different from most other plants, and proper conditions must be 
given to secure satisfactory results. 
Culture. They need a rich, deep, well drained soil; in fact, 
drainage should be perfect and the soil should be prepared at 
least 2 feet deep, using plenty of sharp sand and well-rotted 
manure. The roots must be sent straight down, the whole plant 
must be deeply set, the crowns should be not less than 3 inches 
beneath the surface of the soil. Provide support and protect 
the runners produced the first year from frost with straw or 
small piece of burlap. No protection required after first winter. 
Henryi. Lovely, large creamy white flowers in 
great quantities all summer. 
Jackmani. The popular purple variety with large, 
purple-blue flowers; one of the loveliest vines we 
have . 
Mme. Villard. Bright carmine blossoms in great 
quantities; looks very well on a white back 
ground . 
Ramona. Single, pale blue flowers completely cover 
this plant; it is a very lovely vine not used near¬

English Ivy - Hedera 
The famous English Ivy with its familiar evergreen, glossy 
foliage; requires winter protection where it is exposed to chilly 
winds on open walls. It can, however, be planted with perfect 
safety as a ground cover or as an edging to flower beds. Gra¬ 
cilis, on the other hand, is perfectly hardy and we recommend 
its use on the north side and west side of buildings and walls 
or in shady places.

Helix ("English Ivy). 30 inches high, strong- 
plants .$0.60 $5.00 $40.00 
Helix gracilis. Identical in habit with the 
English Ivy, but with dark green foliage 
not as large and more cut; a most grace¬ 
ful vine; perfectly hardy and a splendid 
evergreen vine for shady places or in walls 
with north and west exposures. Strong 
plants, about 30 inches high.60 5.00 40.00 
Euonymus - Evergreen Bittersweet 
The Euonymus are particularly desirable for their dense, 
evergreen foliage and extreme hardiness, some varieties on ac¬ 
count of this taking the place of the English Ivy for wall cov¬ 
ering, others that of the Boxwood as an edging plant, while 
Acuta is a splendid ground cover, and one of the best creepers 
for rockeries is Kewensis. Plants offered below are 4 to 5- 
year-old specimens. 
Three Doz. 100 
Kewensis. A variety with very small, dark 
green foliage. Everyone who has seen this 
appreciates its value as a rock plant. It 
grows close to the ground, and is a most 
valuable plant for a shady place in the 
rock garden where a delicate evergreen is 
needed .$1.40 $4.00 $30.00
