THE HARDY CLIMBERS 
Vines, used with discretion, will transform the 
ugliest box of a house into a lovely cottage, blend¬ 
ing with the landscape. They will drape a pillar, 
screen a view, or give grateful shade from the 
sun. With them a wire fence becomes a color- 
splashed hedge; a dingy wall the gorgeous back¬ 
drop of the garden scene. All here are hardy.
