CLEMATIS 
Of all the climbing plants, the Clematis family 
provides some of the most colorful and interest¬ 
ing, the large-flowering varieties being the most 
spectacular. Clematis jackmani, shown above, 
is one of the older varieties but its hardiness and 
dependability, as well as its rich color, makes it 
invaluable. Trail it over a wall or fence, in a 
sunny corner, and it becomes a focal point for 
the whole garden.

ROSE DAPHNE 
(Daphne Cneorum ) 
This is a well-known dwarf evergreen shrub, 
notable for its clusters of fragrant pink, May- 
flower-like blossoms that completely cover the 
plant in May and June, with often a second 
blooming-season in September. The Rose Daphne 
forms a low mound of glaucous green about 1 foot 
high, spreading to a diameter of 2 or 3 feet at 
maturity; it thrives in sun or partial shade. 
Shapely plants, 9 to 12 inches across, $1.00 each; 
12 to 15 inch, $1.50

FLOWERING CRABS 
The garden setting is incomplete without the 
height and substance of trees as a background. 
What is more appropriate than one or more 
flowering trees which carry drifts of color high 
out of the garden ? 
This “Carmine Crab” (Malus fl. atrosan- 
guinea ) is smothered with deep carmine-pink, 
Apple-blossoms in May, followed by showy red, 
pea-size fruits in the Fall. Its spreading habit of 
growth gives it additional value for screening un¬ 
sightly objects. 
Well formed trees, 4 to 5 feet high, $3.50 each; 
5 to 6 feet, $4.50; larger sizes up to $10.00 each

Shrubs )
