Honeysuckle— Chinese Twining — A well-known vine holding its foliage nearly all winter. 
Blooms in July and September and is very sweet. 
Hall’s Japan — A strong, vigorous evergreen variety, with pure white flowers changing to 
yellow. Very fragrant; covered with flowers from June to November. 
Monthly Fragrant — Blooms all summer. Flowers red and yellow. Very sweet. 
Ivy — The evergreen ivies often suffer in winter if exposed to the sun, and should therefore, 
be planted on the north side of the wall or building. 
English — A well-known old and popular sort. 
Wistaria— Chinese Purple —One of the most elegant climbing vines known, and a very 
rapid grower after it gets thoroughly established, sometimes making twenty feet of 
wood in a single season. Bears long clusters of pale blue flowers in May and June, and 
also in September. Extremely hardy. Attains a larger size than any other climber. 
clematis 
Coccinea — A curious bell-shape heavy petaled flower, borne in profusion for a long seasonr 
color bright scarlet. 
Henryi — Fine bloomer; flowers large, of a beautiful creamy white, consisting generally of 
from six to eight sepals. June to October. 
Jackmanni— This is the variety upon which Mr. Jackman bestowed his name. It is better 
known than any other, and still stands as one of the best. It is a strong grower and 
produces a mass of intense violet purple flowers from June to October. 
Madame Edward Andre — Flowers large, of a beautiful, bright velvety red, very free flowering 
and continuous bloomer. 
Paniculata — A great novelty from Japan. One of the most desirable, useful, and beautifuly 
of hardy garden vines, a luxuriant grower, profuse bloomer, with fine foliage. Flowers 
of medium size, very pretty and fragrant, produced in the greatest profusion in late 
summer. 
Ramona — A new American seedling clematis. It is a strong, rampant grower, we think fully 
three times stronger than the Jackmanni, and is very hardy. It is a free and perpetual 
blooming variety, both on the old year’s growth and also on the wood of the current 
year; the color of the flower is a deep sky-blue, and very attractive; the size of the 
flower is larger than any variety we ever saw, very many flowers running from five to 
seven inches in diameter, and as large as eighteen inches in circumference. 
HEDGE PLANTS 
American Arbor Vitae— Forms a handsome, ornamental hedge of fairly dense growth. 
Berberry, Japan Quince and Rosa Rugosa— All make fine untrimmed hedges. 
Hemlock — Of graceful habit, and fine foliage, but not so hardy, nor adapted to all soils. 
Honey Locust — By its vigorous growth, and thorny character makes a good cattle or farm 
hedge. 
Norway Spruce — With careful pruning may be kept low and in good shape, and grown in 
this shape is highly ornamental. 
Scotch Pine, Austrian Pine, American Arbor Vitae— All well adapted for planting in belts 
for wind-breaks. 
. FOR POSTS AND TIMBER 
We can furnish one year seedlings at a very low price of Black Locust, True Catalpa 
Speciosa and Russian Mulberry. We recommend the True Catalpa Speciosa as the best 
of the lot and believe that every farm should have its plantation of them and thus supply 
its own posts. A tree will grow large enough for a post in eight or ten years, and it will 
last as long as three or four of the best cedar posts obtainable, and two thousand or more 
can be grown on an acre. Government reports show that Catalpa posts will last 40 or 50 
years in the ground.
