Hardy Vines—Nature’s Drapery 

Hall Japanese Honeysuckle, excellent for covering walls. 
With a lavish hand nature throws a drapery of vines over 
the unsightly. We can well follow her example. An old tree 
may be made a thing of beauty, a rough or stony slope may 
be covered, fences become lovely screens. The bare arbor or 
pergola is neither useful or attractive, but vine clad it brings 
a tone of beauty to the garden. Is the porch sunny and bare? 
Vines provide shade and seclusion from the public. When 
planting cut the tops back severely, particularly clinging 
vines such as Boston Ivy and Euonymus as it is the new 
growth which clings. Twining vines, such as Clematis and 
Honeysuckle, must have a support around which to twine. 
Soil near a foundation is often poor. Replace it with good 
soil and see that they do not suffer for lack of water, espe- 
cially the first season. 
Five or more of a kind at the 10 rate. 
If by parcel post add 3c.each, not less than 10c per pack- 
age, for Missouri and adjoining states, except mail sizes.
