•^ESTBURY NURSERIES Hardy Vines 
HONETSUCKLXS, Coral (Scarlet Trum¬ 
pet). This is well described by its name. 
Heckrotti. A very rare variety ; flowers 
salmon pink and yellow, appearing 
abundantly from June till December. 
Good for cut-flowers. Height, 6 feet. 
IVY, English. A well-known evergreen 
vine, that clings to stone walls and tree- 
trunks. It is hardy, but our bright winter 
sun sometimes burns the leaves. A par¬ 
tially shaded situation suits it best. 
Japan (Boston Ivy, Ampelopsis Veitchii). 
For description, see under cut. 
JESSAMINE, Yellow. Either a shrub or 
vine, according to its training. The 
bright yellow flowers usually open early 
in spring, but sometimes they are seen 
in November, or any of the winter months, 
if grown in a warm, protected situation. 
ROSES, Climbing. See page 32. 
SILK VINE (Periploca). A graceful, quick- 
growing vine,* with slender, shining 
leaves. 
TRUMPET Creeper {Bigyionia radicans). 
A stout climber, that ascends to great 
heights, and makes a picturesque covering 
for old trunks; showy trumpet-shaped 
flowers of orange-scarlet, in late summer. 
Graudifiora. Has larger, lighter flowers. 
VIRGINIA Creeper (Woodbine, Ampe¬ 
lopsis qtiinguefolia), A strong native 
vine, with rich and beautiful autumn tints. 
JAPAN IVY (Boston Ivy; Ampelopsis 
Veitchii). 
The best and most popular vine for covering 
walls and painted surfaces ifspnded or weather¬ 
worn. Autumn colors, orange, crimson and 
purple. 
HALL’S HONEYSUCKLE. 
A strong grower and constant bloomer. We can supply this in un¬ 
limited quantity at low rates. It is' a cheaper cover than smoothing 
and sowing grass seed on a rough bank. A good plant to hold steep 
embankments from washing. 
WISTARIA. A vigorous vine, that blooms profusely in 
early summer. Flowers fragrant, in pendulous clusters. 
The Wistaria can be trained in tree form, when it will 
grow 20 feet high and 6 inches in diameter, making one of 
the most showy flowering trees. Four or five plants, with 
a slight support and careful training, will form a most 
attractive summer-house. 
Chinese. Blue flowers. The best variety. 
White. A white variety of the last. 
Magnifica. This variety blooms later and more sparingly 
than the others; flow'ers larger, and of a pale lilac color. 
Multijuga. Flower clusters 2 to 3 feet long. Rare and 
very fine. 
The Tree Movers of our recent invention are a great 
improvement over any other methods^ and are entirely success¬ 
ful. We have large trees of many varieties and of all sizes. 
For instance, in the nursery we have quantities of trees 20 to 
35 feet high, that have been recently transplanted, root-pruned 
and trained, which, being of uniform size and form, can be used 
for shading entrance drives. The price of such trees ranges from 
$5 to I25, and they are often more economical than small trees, as 
one large one takes the place of several small ones. 
Specimen Evergreens of many species are also in stock, and 
can be successfully transplanted.
