Hardy Ornamental Vines • • 
Vines and creepers have a purpose of utility as well as beauty. Many will grow in 
locations where shrubbery will not thrive. They can be used quite effectively to cover 
bare or brown spots on the lawn. 
Vines and creepers, perhaps of all kinds of plants, make a place feel more like home. 
It seems that their graceful beauty and soft clinging effect adds just the right spirit of 
homely feeling. 
A careful study of your home will no doubt show you where you can place some of
