Ornamental Vines 
(See also Grape Vines on page 72) 
VIRGINIA CREEPER or WOODBINE. Also called five-leaved ivy. One of the 
most popular and most valuable vines with handsome foliage, and blue berries 
in the late Summer. The deep red which it takes on in the Fall is especially 
striking. Each. 30c; 10, $2.75. Postpaid, each, 35c. 
CHINESE MATRIMONY VINE. Useful both as a vine or shrub. Not a good 
climber, but excellent to trail on walls, terraces, etc. A fast growing woody 
plant with drooping or trailing branches. Has lavender blossoms early and 
good sized ornamental red fruit which persists into Winter. Each, 20c; 10, $1.50. 
Postpaid, each, 25c; 10, $1.75. 
PURPLE FLOWERED JACKMANII CLEMATIS. This is one 
of the less hardy large flowered type which produces a 
dense mass of purple in midsummer. Trial has demon¬ 
strated that it will thrive here with winter protection. 
Sold only from pots. Each, 90c; 6, $4.75, 
CLEMATIS or VIRGIN’S BOWER. With its star-like white 
flowers and feathery seed heads this native is one of the 
handsomest of all climbers. It attains a new growth of 
8 to 10 feet each year, but part of the old growth dies off. 
Each, 30c; 10, $2.95. Postpaid, each, 35c. 
LARGE FLOWERING YELLOW CLEMATIS. This variety, 
though found native in this section, is very uncommon and 
is usually considered an Asiatic variety. It is m#re delicate of foliage and slower 
of growth than the white, but the large yellow blossom is very showy, and the vine 
is perfectly hardy. Produces a fine effect as a porch or trellis vine. Each, 35c; 10, 
$3.00. Postpaid, each, 40c. 
ENGELMANN’S CREEPER (Amp. Engelinanni). A type of Virginia creeper, but hav¬ 
ing shorter joints and much smaller and thicker leaves. Its strongest feature is its 
ability to cling to brick, stone or plaster. This makes it valuable in covering walls 
and large buildings. It is quite hardy but we advise planting it in partially shel¬ 
tered places. Each, 35c; 10, $3.00. Postpaid, each, 40c. 
NATIVE HOP VINE. This vine is very similar in appearance to the cultivated sort 
but is hardier. A perennial root with new growth each year, which attains a length 
of 16 feet or more. A handsome, thick-growing vine that will thrive in almost any 
soil and under any condition. Each, 25c; 10, $2.00. Postpaid, each. 30c. 
BITTERSWEET, Celastrus scandens. A very ornamental and absolutely hardy na¬ 
tive climber. It produces orange-yellow flowers followed by showy crimson fruits in Autumn. The 
leaves are dense and glossy. Each, 35c; JO, $3.00. Postpaid, each, 40c. 
Hardy Roses 
Few Roses are suited to the climate of the Northwest and nearly all require some Winter protection. 
Of those we list, Rosa Pratincola, Harrison’s Yellow, Rosa Rubrifolia and Scotch White are entirely hardy 
without covering. The Rugosa and its hybrids will kill back a trifle in severe Winters, but are gener¬ 
ally hardy; all others should be cut back in the Fall and well covered, preferably with soil banked up, 
but at least with straw or manure. Add 10c to price of Single Rose if ordered postpaid. 
RUGOSA HYBRIDS 
Hansa 
AMELIA GRAVEREAUX (Hybrid Rugosa). One of the most handsome hybrids. The 
color is a rather brighter red than Hansa and the flowers, though smaller, are better 
formed and resemble the Tea Roses more. Very fragrant, medium hardy. Each, 
50c; 5 for $2.25. 
SIR THOS. LIFT'ON (Hybrid Rugosa). This is one of the hardiest of the white 
Rugosa hybrids and one of the very best as to size and doubleness of the flowers 
as well, so we are offering it instead of the old white sort that we listed formerly. 
Each, 50c; 5 for $2.25. 
GROOTENDORST or CARNATION ROSE (Rugosa Polyantha Hybrid). Something 
new in Roses. Handsome Rugosa foliage with flowers in clusters like its baby 
- rambler parent. The flowers, however, resemble carnations more than anything 
else and are of a delicate pink shade which heightens the resemblance. Each, 50c; 
5 for $2.25. 
AGNES (Hybrid Rugosa). The only real yellow rose of this type. A handsome clear 
yellow of a shade varying as it is in full sun or not from very pale to lemon or 
darker. Blooms profusely aild several times. Each, 60c; 5 for $2.75. 
NEW CENTURY (Hybrid Rugosa). This is a handsome, light pink; bush rather low 
growing, 2 to 3 feet, but flowers of very large size. It is one of the hardier sorts, 
with the handsome leathery foliage of the Rugosa. A Van Fleet production. Each, 
50c; 5 for $2.25. 
HANSA (Rugosa Hybrid). Crimson in color and one of the very hardiest. Strong 
and upright in growth, handsome foliage and blooms throughout the Summer most 
profusely. Flowers keep well when cut. Each, 
15c; 5 for $2.00. 
SARAH VAN FLEET (Rugosa Hybrid). This is 
one of the newer Rugosa hybrids, a production 
of the famous Rose breeder. Dr. F. W. Van Fleet. 
This variety is exceptionally hardy, a thrifty, strong growing bush.

are very double, large and of a rose pink color. Each, 50c; 5 for $2.25.
