Climbers and Trailers. 
Climbing plants are indispensable for many ornamental uses, and are decidedly useful in nearly all of our 
garden operations. Some varieties are especially desirable for the beauty of their flowers; others for attrac¬ 
tive foliage. They are easily cultivated, but must have proper care and attention in the matter of training. 
Possibly no Climbers offer greater possibilities as ornaments than Clematis Paniculata. Rhynchosperinum and 
Wistaria, while Bignonias, Climbing Roses and Elaeagnus Reflex a are very useful for trellised hedges. Our 
Climbers are carefully grown and properly pruned, and are unusually vigorous. Nearly all in the list are hardy 
in the North. 
Prices for special collection, 10 strong plants, in 10 varieties, our selection, $2.00; $15.00 per 100.
