THE BRAZILIAN MORNING GLORY. ([Ipomoea Setosa.) 
Magnificent summer climbing annual. It grows with the greatest vigor 
and luxuriance. The leaves are 8 to 12 inches across, overlapping each other 
and making a dense shade. The vine is covered with short reddish hairs which, 
with its immense leaves and large clusters of curious seed capsules, render it 
highly ornamental. We know of nothing better for quickly covering a piazza, 
arbor or tree. The flowers are of a beautiful rose color, and are borne in large 
clusters. PkL luc - 
HENDERSON’S 
FLOWERING MAURANDIAS. 
These are grand improvements over the older well-known 
sorts. The flowers are fully double the size, and the plants 
and foliage are correspondingly larger and more robust. 
We had a row of each of the rose, purple and white grow¬ 
ing on 4-foot pea trellis in our grounds the past summer, 
and they elicited praise from all visitors; the vines 
quickly'hid the trellis from view and hung over three 
or four feet, searching for something else to cling to, 
and were thickly studded with flowers nearly as large 
as Gloxinias. The plants from seed sown in spring 
will begin flowering by July and continue until frost.

Moon Flower Vine. 
(Ipomcea Grandiflora Noctiflora.) 
. |0 one who has a trellis or arbor, 
N veranda, pergola or old tree 
to cover should neglect to plant 
The Moon Flower —the most 
rapid-growing of all climbing 
vines. Although a perennial 
species in the tropics with 
us it is readily grown from 
see d as any annual, at¬ 
taining full perfection 
during the summer. I he 
vines are literally cover¬ 
ed with thousands of 
immense, pure white 
fragrant flowers, open¬ 
ing in the evening and 
remaining open until 
noon the following day, 
and if cloudy all day, 
many of them measur¬ 
ing over seven inches 
across. Planted in rich 
ground, in a sunny situa¬ 
tion, and given plenty of 
water, the vines attain a 
height of seventy-five feet. 
The leaves are large and 
heart-shaped, of glossy dark 
creen and are never troubled 
withinsects. ( See cut.) PktAOc. 
Germination may he hastened 
bu notching the hard shell with file 
or knife , or soaking two hours in 
warm water. 
“/ must tell you of my success with the 
Moon Flowers. By actual count 6 vines had 
5,247 blossoms and were admired by every one 
who saw them.”

JAPANESE GIANT 
MORNING GLORIES. 
We introduced these grand climbers into America, and they 
have proven a revelation to many. The robust vines attain a 
height of from 30 to 50 feet. The foliage is luxuriant, distinct 
and varied, green, silvery and yellow leaves; many are mottled 
light and dark green, white and gray. . 
But the surpassing charm of these “Giant Japanese Morning 
Glories” lies in the entrancing beauty and gigantic size of the 
flowers; they measure from 4 to 5 inches across. The colors 
of the flowers, shadings and markings are limitless. Some 
flowers are of deep, rich, velvety colors, others daintily tinted 
and shaded. There are reds from soft rose to crimson and 
garnet; daintiest blue to purple; snow-white to silver-gray. 
Some are striped, blotched and spotted; others have magnifi¬ 
cent edges and throats. {See cut.) Mixed Colors. . .1 kt.lQc.
