Hardy Climbing Vines 
The attractive beauty that may be added to a home by planting a few hardy climbing vines 
around the porch or on a trellis, arbor or fence is unsurpassed by any other plantings. Their 
usefulness in covering unsightly fences and buildings and turning them into objects of 
beauty is far in excess of their small cost. They fit in and grow well in locations where no 
other plants will grow with success. Every home should have a few, and our list includes 
only those which will succeed in nearly any location.

in its clinging to any brick or stone wall, and will
