Red Jackmani. New. A desirable red Clema¬ 
tis has been sought for years, and this is 
the first one of real merit. We found it 
in Lincoln, England, in the summer of 
1902. It is a true Jackmani with crimson 
blossom. We heartily recommend it. We 
have the only stock of it in America. 
John Gould Veitch. Sent from 
Japan in 1862. The flowers are 
very handsome, distinct, large 
double, and of light blue or 
lavendar color. It is like Fort- 
unei, except in the color of the 
flowers. June and July. 
Clematis crispa. A handsome native variety, 
with nodding bell-hapcd, lavender-purple, 
fragrant flowers, which are an inch or a 
little more in length and breadth, with 
revolute sepals; very distinct. 
Clematis paniculata. It is a strong, luxuriant 
grower, with light green foliage that is 
handsome in itself. At the close of Aug¬ 
ust innumerable star-like flowers cover the 
vine in a sheet of fragrant white. We rec¬ 
ommend it for planting anywhere around 
the house and for covering posts, fences, 
walls and stumps. 25 cts each, $2.25 doz. 
Romona. Very large, deep sky-blue flowers. 
A desirable new sort. 
Ville de Lyon. Bright red. Well-formed flow¬ 
ers and very good variety. 
EUONYMUS radicans. (Creeping Euonymus.) 
An evergreen species with small glossy 
leaves. Grows slowly to a height of 20 or 
30 feet. Clings tenaciously to walls or 
rocks, for which it makes a splendid cover. 
Easily kept under control and on this 
account suited for low walls. 35 cts. each, 
$3.00 doz.

blooming sorts of real merit. The flowers 
are large and of a pale, reddish violet 
color. Desirable. July to October. 
Clematis Flammula (European Sweet). The 
flower of this variety are very fragrant; 
requires a slight protection in winter; 
very desirable. 
Var. variegata. Differs from the above in 
that it has pretty creamy white markings 
on the leaves that make it valuable for 
contrasts. 35 sts. each, $3 doz. 
HEDERA Helix. (English Ivy.) A familiar 
evergreen vine, with thick dark green fol¬ 
iage. It grows in almost any soil and is 
fond of shady places. The young and 
immature wood sometimes winter-kills in 
localities north of New York, but it is not 
so much the cold as the bright late winter 
suns that kill it. Much used to cover build-
