Clematis Flammula, A Mediterranean Species 
A Valuable Book on Clematis 
Enthusiasts will find Ernest Markham’s volume, “Clematis,” 
published by Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York, of great value. 
Although written from an English point of view, it contains a 
very significant chapter for American gardeners by J. E. Spingarn, 
who is America’s outstanding authority on this genus. 
In addition to a very complete treatise on the culture, care, 
and use of Clematis, this book contains a list of all the important 
species and varieties in cultivation. The price of this useful vol¬ 
ume is $2.00; it may be ordered from our office at Fairport, N. Y. 
Articles of value on Clematis may be found also in the “Stan¬ 
dard Cyclopedia of Horticulture,” by L.H. Bailey; “The Garden 
Dictionary,” by Norman Taylor; “More Aristocrats of the Gar¬ 
den,” byE. H. Wilson, and in the many horticultural periodicals.
