CLEMATIS 
We call special attention to the fine list of these 
we are offering this season. As there have been 
many failures in growing Clematis a few simple 
directions as to their culture may not be out of place 
here, this refers more especially to the large flowered 
varieties as with the small flowered section failures 
are comparatively few. Plant where there is not more 
than 4-5 hours sunshine a day and use either low 
growing plants or peat moss to help keep roots cool. 
Excellent drainage is very necessary, clematis like 
a rich soil but not too heavy, they are all lime lovers 
so a little sprinkling about them occasionally will be 
helpful. W>ell rotted cow manure is an ideal fertilizer 
and fine bone while slow acting is safe and valuable, 
spite of contrary opinions occasionally expressed. 
Be sure to provide suitable trellises or wire sup¬ 
ports for the plants not fastened too close to stone or 
brick walls. The small flowered section can be headed 
back hard each spring but the large flowered group 
simply require old wood which is dead or nearly so 
removed. Our plants of the large flowered section are 
all in pots making it possible to plant over a rather 
long season.
