Clematis, Jackmani—Striking Purple Flowers 
Boston Ivy 
Neat foliage, clings well to brick or stucco 
Cimbiug Vines 
Vines create a graceful, softening effect. Use them for shade, for covering bare areas or 
for screening out unpleasant views. 
BITTERSWEET. (Celastrus Scandens.) A hardy, strong- 
growing vine with glossy leaves. The yellow flowers are 
followed by reddish-orange berries in autumn, which are 
attractive on the vine or when used as a winter bouquet. 
CLEMATIS HENRYI. White. Large white flowers, some 
measure seven inches across. Very good against a dark 
background. 
CLEMATIS JACKMANI. Purple. This is the most popular 
blooming: vine. The striking large purple flowers, four to 
six inches across, completely cover the vine. The refined 
habit of growth makes it ideal for planting on a trellis.

CLEMATIS PANICULATA. White. The most vigorous 
growing of the Clematis. The dainty white, star-like, 
fragrant flowers bloom abundantly, nearly hiding the 
foliage. The only vine blooming profusely in August 
and September. 
GRAPE, Beta. This grape makes one of the best vines for 
covering porches and arbors. It is perfectly hardy with- 
out winter protection and produces an abundance of 
fruit. 
2 year extra large 
A flowering vine on a trellis is most attractive. 
HONEYSUCKLE, Summer King. (Lonicera Heckrotti.) 
Large, fragrant, flame-red trumpets lined with gold are 
borne in immense clusters from early summer until 
frost. Dark blue-green foliage. 
IVY, Boston. (Ampelopsis Vetchi.) The very best of all 
vines for covering stone, concrete, or brick, as it clings 
closely to such material without support. The foliage col- 
ors to a beautiful red and gold in autumn. 
IVY, Engleman’s. (Ampelopsis Engelmani.) Will cling to 
rough stone, brick or concrete surfaces without support. 
A rapid grower. Foliage turns crimson in autumn. 
CLEMATIS CULTURE 
Plant in well drained soil. The hole should be a foot wide and 
eighteen inches deep, filled with at least a foot of rich soil below the 
roots and also rich soil surrounding the roots. When planting bare 
root plants that are wrapped in moss, cut back all roots, as necessary, 
to 6 or 8 inches before planting and thin out the small twisted roots 
in the center. When planting, the roots should point in a downward 
slanting position like an inverted letter ‘“‘V’’ rather than spread out 
flat, and they should also be separated to keep them from being 
pressed against each other when the soil is firmed. When planting 
potted plants, remove carefully from the pot and plant about an inch 
deeper than the top of original pot. 
Do not over-water. A thorough watering once a week is all that is 
necessary. A mulch of peat over the top of the soil is helpful to keep 
the roots cool. A wood trellis is the best support for climbing.
