BEAUTIFUL ORNAMENTAL VINES 
• 
Beds of flowers tastefully disposed give brightness and beauty to a place, but it is the climbers that 
afford coziness and special charm to a home. They beautify unsightly spots; they break up the monotony 
of the grounds; they supply, like Jonah's gourd, quick shade from burning sun. A good variety of these 
plants should be found at every home. They are indispensable in giving a homey appearance, and 
imparting cheer, comfort and contentment to the inmates. The plants are readily started from seeds, and 
easily transplanted to where you wish them to grow.
