“Then the Wild Clematis Comes, With Her Wealth of Tangled Blooms.” 
These are the draperies that Nature gives us to 
cover porches, arbors, fences, and to disguise un- 
sightly buildings and old trees. All the varieties here 
named are strong growers, with either bright flowers 
in summer or brilliant berries in fall. Use vines 
freely to make the landscape more beautiful. They 
thrive almost anywhere, cost little, and give a large 
return in comfort and pleasure.
