Climbing Plants 
AMPELOPSIS tricuspidata Veitchi. Boston Ivy needs no introduction. 
It is most effective for covering brick and stone walls. 60 cts. each. 
ARISTOLOCHIA Sipho. Where a dense screen is required, Dutchman’s Pipe 
can be depended on to produce the effect rapidly. $1.00 each. 
BIGNONIA radicans. The Trumpet Vine is valued not only for its attractive 
foliage but also for its brilliant orange, tubular flowers which appear in 
clusters in August when flowering vines are scarce. 35 cts. each. 
CELASTRUS scandens. Bittersweet is another of those rapid-growing vines 
that can be depended on to make an abundant and dense growth in a short 
time. This plant makesa splendid ground-cover for steep banks. 55 cts. each. 
CLEMATIS Jouiniana. A choice species of Clematis which is not particularly 
well known in New England. The fragrant lavender flowers appear in 
panicles during September. 75 cts. each. 
Paniculata. In addition to the fluffy white flowers and the sweet fragrance 
there is the added beauty of the silky seed-pods. Use this plant as a com- 
panion for C. Jouiniana. 50 cts. each. 
CLEMATIS HYBRIDS. 
Duchesse of Albany. The pink trumpet-shaped flowers are curiously ac- 
centuated with brown stamens. Not large but very dainty and delightful, 
especially with the rich purple C. Jackmant. July—Sept. $1.25 each. 
Duchess of Edinburgh. Here is a worth-while white double hybrid of con- 
siderable size which is well worth growing. $1.00 each. 
Jackmani. An old favorite, this velvety textured, purple flower, but we never 
tire of it. $1.00 each. 
Mme. Baron Veillard. A dainty mauve variety with abundant clusters of 
creamy stamens. $1.00 each. 
EUONYMUS radicans vegetus. The Broad-leaved Wintercreeper contributes 
year-round interest to any garden because of its evergreen foliage and its 
colorful orange fruit clusters. The plants can be depended on to reach 
considerable height if given some support. 2-yr. plants, 35 cts. each. 
3-yr. heavy plants, 55 cts. each. 
LONICERA Heckrotti. A large-flowered Honeysuckle with blue-green foliage 
which contrasts most pleasantly with the showy flame-coral trumpets lined 
with gold appearing abundantly in summer. Very fragrant. 75 cts. each. 
POLYGONUM Auberti. The Silver Lace Vine, in addition to being a vigorous 
and rampant grower, contributes masses of foamy white flowers in late sum- 
mer and early fall. Particularly well adapted to garden entrances, pergolas 
and trellises. 70 cts. each. 
JAPANESE LONG-CLUSTER WISTERIA

plants often produce flower clusters 36 inches long. When planting, set the 
vine 2 to 3 inches below the graft. Rich, well-drained loam suits Wisteria.

Climbing plants can be used in many ways to embellish your garden. Often they 
can be planted to soften the severe architectural lines of the house, or an unpleasant 
foundation. Often climbing plants can be effectively trained on pillars or as accents 
in borders.
