Ornamental VINES 
There are so many different kinds of vines at the disposal of American gardeners 
that there is no need for anyone to resort to the same one for every situation. 
They vary greatly in foliage and flower, in habit of growth and vigor. Each one 
deserves to be used in the location it likes best, and it is better to choose a vine 
for the place it is to be planted then to purchase a vine and then try to make it 
grow, in an unsuitable situation. 
English Ivy and Euonymus radicans vegetus are evergreen vines that are 
very vigorous in growth, but the latter is likely to be more hardy. Once started, 
it needs protection for the first winter but then flourishes. Boston Ivy is another 
excellent wall covering but it is not evergreen.
