dense growth. It bears profusely from July until 
frost ; has handsome and elegant flowers of a rich dark

be covered with straw as a protection during exces- 
sively cold weather.

Flowers white, star-shaped, produced during mid- 
summer and fall upon long shoots. In addition to its 
profusion of flowers, the latter are also very fragrant, 
and the foliage is handsome; a most desirable new 
| climber of shrubby habit, and perfectly hardy.

deep orange ; blooms nearly all summer.

A subvariety of the native species, with 
double flowers, which are produced in 
great profusion in early spring, and more 
sparingly in the fall. If grown in a con- 
servatory, flowers are produced nearly all 
winter. 
HEDERA

15 cents each, $1.25 for 10, $10 per 100, 
Algeriensis. With very rich leaves of 
immense size. A fine sort. 
Hibernica. Irish. The well- known 
variety. 
The above succeed quite well here, 
while few of the varieties cultivated farther 
North are of any value for this climate. 
We have no connection whatever with any 
other Nursery, and do not employ agents.
