LARGE FLOWERED HYBRID CLEMATIS 
There is no more beautiful vine known. The exquisite flowers, 
very large but refined in shape and coloring, are borne in the great¬ 
est profusion all summer long from the end of June. They can be 
easily grown if the few rules necessary in planting are carefully 
observed. 
Their principal requirements are coolness for the roots, plenty 
of moisture but good drainage, and lime in the soil. Choose a situ¬ 
ation where the roots will be shaded while the flowers have some 
sun. The northeast corner of a building is about right. 
Dig a hole two feet six inches deep, and place six inches of 
drainage at the bottom. Fill with rich, sandy loam containing 
plenty of well rotted manure. Add lime. 
Plant with the crown three inches below the surface. This is 
important. 
Be sure the vines are tied to a support as soon as planted. 
For the first winter protect the vines slightly. After that no 
protection is necessary.
