VINES 
and 
GROUND COVER 
Hardy vines and climbers add greatly to the 
beautification of the home, by covering banks 
and bare spots and giving shade and fragrance 
to the pergola and verandas. Among the vines 
there is a great diversity of habit and variety. 
Some vines are best suited for shade, others 
for flowers. Many of them require some support, 
but others such as Boston Ivy and English Ivy, 
are self-supporting to brick, stone, or mater- 
jals of similar texture. These are very useful 
for softening the rough corners of the house.
