CLIMBING VINES 
V INES are a very interesting part of the well-planted landscape. They ha\'e 
many uses and lend charm and beauty wherever used. 
Perennial vines, after they are once established, grow more vigorous each 
year. Woody vines grow to be quite old and often cover a large surface. For 
screening unsightly objects, for softening the lines of entrances and for covering 
pergolas in the garden, vines are almost indispensable.

“I received the pecan trees in good condition. They were the best lot of trees

rooted . . . ” — Rev. L. O. R., Leesville.S. C. 
BAMBOO 
^ I ^HE graceful branches and dainty foliage of the Bamboos deserve a 
I prominent place in every garden of the Lower South. The clump sorts do 
not spread as rapidly as do some, and can be readily kept in bounds. For 
screens and windbreaks they are not surpassed by any other type of plants. 
Bamboos will thrive in practically any type of soil if supplied plenty of plant- 
food, and plenty of moisture, although the location must be well drained. Screen 
that undesirable view with Bamboo.
