Lage Flowered Clematis 
(We do not ship Clematis into California, Washington or Oregon.) 
Only in recent years have American gardeners been able to enjoy the 
rare beauty of the many Clematis hybrids. These European garden 
treasures are notable for their spectacular flowers. Outstanding in 
color and in form, they lend dignity and charm to any garden. Grown 
on trellises, arbors, pergolas, old tree stumps, and walls, these climb- 
ing plants often flaunt their beauty in high places where they may be 
enjoyed from many parts of the garden. 
Both the large- and the small-flowered varieties are well worth 
growing. While the large-flowered forms provide great richness of 
color, the small-flowered kinds impress us with their curiously formed 
flowers. 
From a decorative standpoint these Clematis hybrids are most useful. 
They last well when cut, and lend themselves to many unique arrange- 
ments. 
Culture. They need a rich, deep, well drained soil; in fact, drainage 
should be perfect and the soil should be prepared at least 2 feet deep, 
using plenty of sharp sand and well-rotted manure. The roots must be 
sent straight down, the whole plant must be deeply set, the crown should 
be not less than 3 inches beneath the surface of the soil. Provide support 
and protect the runners produced the first year from frost with straw or 
small piece of burlap. No protection required after first winter.

CLEMATIS, MRS. ROBERT BRYDON 
By crossing the lovely sweet scented, deep blue, bushy or dwarf 
Clematis Davidiana with a very stong and robust growing native Amer- 
ican variety, we obtained a beautiful climber, which grows about 8 to 
10 feet high. The top of this vine is covered with billowy masses of pale 
watery blue flowers at their best in August and September. It is perfect 
for covering fences, trellises and pergolas. Being absolutely hardy, it 
can be used anywhere. Is entirely free from insect pests, is always neat 
because the past season’s growth should be partly removed each fall, 
leaving about 3 feet, not more. Easy to grow. Ordinary garden soil 
will do. Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 

CLEMATIS - Virgin’s Bower 
Besides the large-flowered Clematis there are several varieties producing 
smaller blooms or in large panicles. All are very desirable and most useful. 
Flammula and Montana are of strong growth, but their flowers are not 
fragrant like those of the Paniculata which really is one of the loveliest 
sweet scented vines we have. 
Culture. All require a rich, light well drained soil and should be grown 
in full sun. A support should be provided for them to climb on, it is well 
to tie the vines in their early growth, trim and remove dead vines early in 
spring. Plant in fall or early spring. 
Coccinea texensis Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
Grows 10 to 12 feet. A very handsome, hardy climber, bearing small, 
thick, bell-shaped flowers, of bright coral-red, im wonderful profusion, 
from June till frost. 
Montana rubens * Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
(Anemone Clematis.) A strong, vigorous, extremely hardy variety, 
thriving under most adverse conditions. Its clustered pink flowers ex- 
pand in April and May; the best of our spring climbers. 
Paniculata Each $1.00, Three $2.75, Doz. $8.50 
This hardy climber is one of the choicest and most satisfactory climbing, 
flowering plants. Of strong, rapid growth, with small, dense, cheerful 
green foliage and pure white, deliciously fragrant flowers, in greatest 
profusion in April and September. 2-year plants.

Cuonymus ( Cverreen Bitlexswect ) 
The Most Versatile, Hardy, Easily Grown Evergreen Vine and Shrub. 
The Plant of 1000 Uses. 
The Euonymus are particularly desirable for their dense, evergreen 
foliage and extreme hardiness, some varieties on account of this taking 
the place of the English Ivy for wall covering, others that of the Box- 
wood as an edging plant, while Acuta is a splendid ground cover, and 
one of the best creepers for rockeries is Kewensis. All do well in sun - 
or shade. 
Radicans, Wayside Gardens Compact Form 
An excellent evergreen, fine in either shade or sun. Its habit is a bushy 
growth. Foliage a dark shiny green and rather small. This vine may also 
be trimmed into a small evergreen hedge for formal beds or walk.
