Flowering Vines 
Chinese Fleecevine 
(Polygonum auberti) 
This outstanding vine of the last decade is still unknown to so many that 
we are listing its many good points. 
1. A rapid grower which, if set out in the Spring, 
will bloom the first year. 
2. Blooms intermit¬ 
tently throughout the 
season, with its heavi¬ 
est blossom harvest in 
September. 
3. The delicate silvery- 
white flowers resemble 
“fleece” — hence its 
name. 
4. A luxuriant vine; 
the deep green foliage 
completely covers all 
framework, moreso 
when in bloom. 
5. A clean vine; no 
dead leaves hanging 
on in winter, or shaggy 
bark to collect dirt. 
And does not rust, 
mildew or blight. 
6. Thrives where it re¬ 
ceives sun only half of 
the day, and in down¬ 
town city atmosphere.
