ON CLIMBING PLANTS, 
AS SUITABLE ORNAMENTS OF THE FLOWER GARDEN. 
Sir,—-I have frequently noticed the almost entire absence of 
climbing plants in the beds and borders of small flower gardens, 
and as often regretted the same, for but very few plants possess 
that pleasing aerial lightness which distinguishes these. By 
climbing plants it must not be understood to include all those 
hardy plants, such as ivy, clematis, &c., which, though strictly 
speaking, are certainly climbers, yet not those alluded to ; but 
even these, if I include the honeysuckle, the jasmine, the 
ampelopsis, and others of the same character, when in appro¬ 
priate situations, may be made to contribute largely to the gene¬ 
ral appearance of a gardeti, by covering with verdure unsightly 
objects, or in assisting to form alcoves or verdant passages; 
and for these purposes the ampelopsis should never be omitted. 
Its value arising from the very pleasing relief it affords to the
