Stellata (Waterlily). This plant grows in a pyr- 
amidal shape, more bushy and twiggy than the 
M. Stellata. It is a faster grower than Stella- 
ta, but not as rapid as the Soulangeana, the 
branches being much more slender. It bears 
flowers in great profusion and blooms two to 
four weeks later than Stellata. The flowers 
are well placed on ends of the branchlets, 
measuring from 4% to 6 inches across. The 
flowers consist of three to five layers, running 
from twenty to thirty-two petals, which have 
more character than the Stellata and stand in 
a more upright position. The color is blush- 
pink, the buds flesh pink.

Ivys—cont. 
Colchica Dentata. A vigorous rampant vine 
with widely spaced leaves, 6 to occasionally 10 
inches in length. The leaves rarely show any 
evidence of lobing, but the margins are marked 
with irregularly and widely spaced, small, 
sharp serrations. The plant is probably more 
tender than any of the others listed here. 
Helix Angularis aurea. A vine of strong growth 
with large, indistinctly lobed leaves as much 
as 5 to 6 inches across. The new growth is 
light green in age becoming medium green. 
At its best, the leaves develop a pattern of 
small yellowish-green, angular areas filling the 
spaces between the veins, but at Glenn Dale 
this pattern is seldom formed. 
Helix Atropurpurea. A moderately vigorous 
vine with medium-sized leaves 2-3 inches 
across, somewhat darker green than the others 
during the summer. In winter they become 
dark purplish with a faint venation pattern of 
dull red brown. 
Helix Caenwoodiana. A slender vine of medium 
growth, similar to var. Doneralilensis, from 
which it differs chiefly in its somewhat wider 
shorter lobes, and slightly larger leaves. 
Helix Donerailensis. A vine of only moderate 
vigor. Its -closely set leaves are about 1% 
inches broad. They have 3 or sometimes 5 nar- 
row, spreading lobes. The medium green color 
becomes dull purplish bronze in winter. 
Helix Emerald Gem. A vine of moderate vigor- 
ous growth with thin, broad, obtusely lobed 
leaves about 2 in. in each dimension. The new 
growth is a splendid light green in summer. In 
winter the leaves are warm reddish bronze. 
Helix Hibernica. Aureo-maculata. This plant 
differs from H. Helix Hibernica chiefly in the 
presence of irregular yellowish-white blotches 
on the leaves. The blotches vary in size from 
very small to more than half a leaf. 
Helix Howardii. A slender vine of medium 
growth with small, 3-lobed leaves, at most 2 
inches across. The summer color is dark green, 
dotted; marbled, or occasionally blotched with 
creamy white. The variegation, however, is 
uncertain. The plants may be a little tender.
