in great quantities and recommend it very highly. It is fine to use 
as individual shrubs about the house or in the borders or to plant 
in great masses, being careful to plant the shrubs far enough apart 
so they have plenty of spread. Also very much used for both

7 feet. Rather open, sparse foliage to make the 
wonderful blooms all the more conspicuous. Flow¬

diameter. Begins to bloom about June 15th with 
us, and blooms profusely for about 3 weeks. Then 
it rests a few weeks and starts to bloom again,

frost.

the Climbing Vines where a real hardy vine is needed.

berries which remain all winter. Fine winter bouquets.

vines. Each, 50c; 4 for #1.60.

the American variety. Limbs are also more graceful. 
Fruits are round but a lighter yellow. Beautiful vine.
