Natures Draperies -- THE VINES =  — 4 “ 
CULTURAL HINTS: Vines require 
the same planting methods as 
shrubs. If they are to grow on a 
building, don't plant too close. 1 foot 
away is good and 1% feet is better. 
If you wish to train the Wisteria 
to a tree form, remove side shoots 
and train the strongest leader to a 
stake to the desired height. Allow 
it to branch at the top only. Stake 
may be removed after a year or two 
as the plant will then be strong 
enough to support itself. Old Wis- 
teria plents that do not bloom should 
be heavily root pruned. Spring 
planting only. 
GLORIOUS NEW HYBRID WISTERIAS 
Lovely new hybrids—long, 
glorious clusters of dainty, 
pea-shaped flowers. Long 
blooming period and usually 
start to bloom the first year 
after planting. New varieties 
may be trained in tree form 
that will produce large, sturdy 
trunks. (See cultural hints.) 
Floribunda Rosea. The finest 
pink Wisteria. Very profuse 
blooms. Clusters 1¥2 feet 
long. 
Kyushaku. Translated, this

tually do attain a length of 
three feet.

ers of the deepest color.
