CLIMBING VINES 
Vines are a very interesting part of the well- 
planted landscape. They have many uses and 
lend charm and beauty wherever used. 
Perennial vines after they are once established, 
grow more vigorous each year. Woody vines, 
such as Wisteria and Fig Vine, grow to be quite 
old and often cover a large surface. For screen¬

entrances and for covering pergolas in the gar¬ 
den, vines are almost indispensable.

bamboos deserve a prominent place in every gar¬

soil if supplied plenty of plant food, and plenty
