ROSA DE MONTANA 
Antigonon leptopus. Grows to a height of from 10 to 20 
feet in a single season to form a heavy cover. Through Sum- 
mer great masses of rosy pink flowers are borne in heavy 
profusion on the tips of the slender branches. It dies to the 
ground each winter and appears bigger and better each suc- 
ceeding Spring. Hardy. Sun. Gal. containers, $1.25. 
EASTER HERALD TRUMPET 
Beaumontia grandiflora. A heavy twining vine that grows 
with great rapidity, spreading its huge luscious leaves thickly 
over wall or trellis. In summer it bears big deliciously fra- 
grant flowers that resemble Easter Lilies. Plant in a sheltered 
location as it is tender to frost. Sun or shade. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $3.50; gal. containers, $1.25. 
VIOLET TRUMPET VINE 
Bignonia violacea. When in bloom this hardy climber is 
really an astonishing sight. A background of dark green 
foliage accentuates the striking loveliness of the thickly clus- 
tered soft violet trumpets. Not injured by frost. Sun or part 
shade. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, $1.00. 
BOUGAINVILLEA 
Bougainvillea spectabilis Crimson Lake. In any sunny lo- 
cation that is not too cold in winter this Bougainvillea will 
provide shimmering masses of bright scarlet bloom through 
summer and fall and winter also if the nights are not too 
chilly. Planted against a wall or trellis the plant will quickly 
form a thick cover of interesting foliage. Should not be 
planted where heavy frosts are frequent. 5-gal. containers, 
$5.00; gal. containers, $1.75. 
KANGAROO TREEBINE 
Cissus antarctica. Spreads its big lance-like leaves and 
brownish stems with unbelievable rapidity. Probably the 
fastest growing of any worthwhile evergreen vine and it is 
the hardiest, as far.as frost is concerned, of all the Evergreen 
Grapes. Sun or part shade. Gal. containers, $1.25. 
Cissus hypoglauca. This variety, too, thrives in full sun 
or part shade. Its highly polished leaves, furry brown leaf 
stems and rapid growth make it, in our opinion, the most de- 
sirable of all Evergreen Grapes. Half hardy. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, o.20) cal contamenrs, si25- 
COLORFUL CLEMATIS 
While the large flowered Clematis are not as easily grown 
here as in colder regions, we have seen some very excellent 
specimens here. The varieties listed below carry exquisite 
single bloom to 3 inches across. Plants should be cut back 
nearly to the ground each Winter. Sun or light shade and 
moist conditions. Hardy. Gal. containers, $1.50. 
Henry. [Frosty white. Jackman. Purple. Ramona. Blue. 
CLINGING FIG VINE 
Ficus pumila. A dense reliable standby for covering fire- 
place chimneys and expanses where a tight clinging ever- 
green vine is desirable. It is sometimes slow in starting but 
once it makes up its mind to travel it wastes little time. Hardy 
in all but the coldest sections. Sun or shade. Gal. containers, 
90c. 
CAROLINA JESSAMINE 
Gelsemium sempervirens. A remarkably clean foliaged vine 
from Central America, In some years, as early as December, 
each slender twining branchlet is laden with small mildly 
fragrant trumpets of clear canary yellow. Continues to bloom 
well into April. Small bright leaves. Grows reasonably fast. 
Sun or part shade. Very hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. 
containers, $1.00. 
HANDSOME EVERGREEN IVIES 
Hedera canariensis Yellowedge. Resembles the foregoing 
variety except that each leaf is deeply edged with white. Sun 
or shade. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, $1.00; 
flats of about 100 plants, $6.25. 
Hedera helix. English Ivy. Used extensively as a ground 
cover, also for fences, walls and chimneys. Sun or shade. 
Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, $1.00; flats of 
about 100 plants, $6.00. 
GOLD FROM GUINEA 
Hibbertia volubilis. A vine remarkable for its waxy heavy 
textured foliage and prodigal quantities of 2-inch single bur- 
nished yellow flowers. Will provide a strong note of color 
for many weeks in late spring and early summer. In either 
full sun or part shade it will give a good account of itself. 
Hardy except in coldest spots. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. 
containers, $1.25. 
PINK WAX VINE 
Hoya carnosa. Modest vines are few and far between but 
here is one that can be depended upon not to grow all over 
the place. Plant it in a shaded location and give it support. 
It will attain a height of 6 to 7 feet covering thoroughly as 
it grows. In Summer vou will be rewarded with a handsome 
display of white, pink-shaded blooms that possess a re- 
markably rich perfume. Should not be planted in extremely 
cold areas. Gal. containers, $1.50. 
SPANISH JASMINE 
Jasminum officinale grandiflorum. A rapid growing vine 
much prized for the full fragrance of its single white flowers 
and the lacy lightness of its soft foliage. Has been an easily 
grown favorite for many years. Sun. IJlardy. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $3.25; gal. containers, $1.00. 
Lonicera japonica halliana. Hall's Honeysuckle. Because 
of the denseness of its growth, evergreen characteristics, 
hardiness in any weather and subtle fragrance this vine has 
been a favorite for years. A remarkably effective cover for 
banks. Sun. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, $1.00. 
In the narrow spaces between walks and buildings, where 
shrubs are impractical, vines may be trained flat against 
walls, nroviding a welcome covering and bright bloom as 
well. Vines suitable for sun or shade are listed on page 63.
