W E are fortunate at FRUIT- 
LANDS to have such a va¬ 
riety of vines, as there are 
so many ways that they may be 
used. The Ampelopsis, Decumaria, 
Ficus and Ivy will cling to trees 
or stumps, and masonry, without 
trellis. The Ivy, Vinca and 
Mitchella are ideal ground covers 
for shady places. The remainder 
are handsome tall flowering vines. 
The Chinese Bignonia and Wis¬ 
tarias may be trained in standard 
forms, making lovely specimens. 
AMPELOPSIS . Ivy 
Ampelopsis tricuspidata (Japanese or Boston Ivy). A de¬ 
ciduous vine of rapid growth, suitable for covering walls, 
stumps, etc. Strong plants, 25 cents each; $2 for 10. 
ANTIGONON . Mexican Rose 
Antigonon leptopus (Rosa de Montana). Commonly called 
Mexican Rose. The flowers, which are carried in long 
sprays, are bright rosy pink. It is a desirable Southern 
vine, blooming freely from June until fall. The foliage 
is heart-shaped, dense, and makes a good covering for 
porch or trellis. The top dies down in winter, and 
therefore the roots should be protected with a mulching 
of leaves. Growth does not begin until April, therefore 
shipment cannot be made until early April. 
Each 10 
Strong plants from 5-in. pots.$ .35 $3.00 
Smaller plants from 4-in. pots.25 2.00 
CLEMATIS—Continued 
C. paniculata (Sweet Autumn Clema¬ 
tis). Very fragrant, white, star¬ 
shaped flowers produced in profu¬ 
sion during mid-summer and fall 
on long shoots. Handsome foliage. 
Extra-strong, 2-yr. field-grown 
plants. 25 cents each; $2 per 10. 
Note: Clematis does best in deep, 
rich soil. As soon as the plants are 
set out, supports on which to climb 
should be provided. 
On account of the Large-flowering 
Clematis being hard to handle, even 
in packing, we cannot agree to re¬ 
place any that do not live. 
FICUS . Climbing Fig 
Ficus pumila (F. repens). An evergreen climber with small, 
bright green leaves, and an excellent plant for covering 
walls, rocks, and rustic work. Makes a dense, dark 
green covering. In protected situations the vine is hardy 
in Augusta. Delivery after April 1. Strong plants. 25 
cents each; $2.00 per 10; $15.00 per 100.

Gelsemlum sempervirens (Carolina Jessamine). Our native 
variety. Many bright yellow, fragrant flowers, in early 
spring. 
G. sempervirens flore-pleno (Double Yellow Jessamine). A 
rare sub-variety of our native Yellow Jessamine; double

ingly in the fall. Blooms in the conservatory, nearly
