Large Flowered CLEMATIS 
One of the most highly prized of all the 
flowering vines because of their large colorful 
flowers that often measure 5 to 6 inches 
across. Many people have had little success 
with Clematis because of soil conditions which 
can easily be remedied. They are partial to 
lime and should have a handful occasionally 
worked into the soil around the plants. We 
offer 1 year old pot plants that will bloom the 
second season. Hardy in Zone 4. Shipped in 
spring only,

Evergreen 
BITTERSWEET 
The Evergreen Bittersweet 
(Euonymus vegetus) is a 
beautiful evergreen vine that 
will succeed in either sun or 
shade. If planted near a 
rough stone or brick wall it 
will cling to the surface but 
if planted in the open, it piles 
itself up into a low shrub-like 
growth. The glossy green 
foliage is thick and leathery 
and even in the north will remain on the vine 
throughout the winter. Bright colored berries 
appear in the fall and cling to the vine well into 
the winter months or until eaten by birds. Hardy 
in Zone 4. Strong 2 year old plants, $1.25 each; 
3 for $3.10, prepaid.
