CLIMBING 
VINES_ 
BITTERSWEET— 
Native climber, with handsome, 
glossy foliage. The flowers are not 
conspicuous, but the chief glory of 
the vine consists of the large clus- 
ters of beautiful, orange-crimson 
fruits, in quaint yellow husks, re- 
tained all winter. Bright in effect, 
its graceful sprays of berries are 
charming for winter house-decora- 
tion, and are used for draping door- 
ways, mantels, and pictures. 3 yr., 
T5C. 
CLEMATIS 
JACKMANII— 
Flowers; when fully expanded, 
are 4 to 6 inches in diameter, in- 
tense violet-purple, with a_ rich, 
velyety appearance, distinctly vein- 
ed. It blooms continually from July 
until cut off by frost. Potted 
plants, 75c. 
ENGELMAN’S IVY— 
This variety is a rapid grower, 
has beautiful dark green foliage, and 
in the fall gives a beautiful autumn 
effect, the leaves changing to al- 
most crimson. It is used to great 
advantage on churches and large 
buildings of all kinds, to soften the 
hard stone and brick effects. 2 yr., 
50c. 7 
BOSTON IVY— 
Used generally to cover walls, its fine 
shoots extending to the roofs of tall buildings.

April, 1909, when one of the first jobs in the spring 
was to make up a large quantity of willow and poplar 
cuttings which were used by the farmers of the North- 
west for starting windbreaks. Many changes have taken 
place in the demands for trees and shrubs since we began 
our business 44 years ago. The demand at that time was 
almost entirely from farmers for windbreaks, orchards and 
fruit gardens. About 25 or 30 years ago people began to 
improve the grounds around their homes. This demand 
has continued unabated and in addition the farm-owners 
are now renewing the old orchards and windbreaks that 
had been neglected during the years of the low income 
from farming.
