CLEMATIS 
Large Flowering Varieties. 
Available after April 1. Price $1.25 each. 
Success with Clematis depends greatly on the situ- 
ation in which they are planted. The ideal planting 
site provides a cool shaded area for the roots and 
full sun or part shade for the tops. Shade can be 
provided for the roots by planting on the north or 
east side of a bushy shrub or by erecting a sun-shield 
of shingles near the base of the plants. Care must 
be taken in planting and tying. New stems are slen- 
der and brittle. Clematis supports itself by means 
of tendrils that twist readily about a wire or string.
