Ornamental Vines 
Vines are indispensable for many ornamental uses in your yard. There is 
something about them that gives an indescribable charm and beauty wherever they 
are used. Often used to decorate bare walls and unsightly objects which would 
otherwise be objectionable. 
All of our vines are easily cultivated. Once they are properly planted and 
trained, they require very little further attention.
