ACTINIDIA ARGUTA (The Silver Vine). A desirable very hardy Japanese climber of strong vigorous growth, with dark green, shining foliage and greenish white flowers with purple centres, which are followed by clusters of edible fruit with fig like flavor. An excellent plant for covering arbors, trellises, etc., where a rapid and dense growth is desired. Strong plants, 60 cts. each; $ per doz. ACTINIDIA CHINENSIS. A valuable introduction from central China, with large orbicular foliage of dark green, which, when young, is thickly covered with bright red hairs, giving it a beautiful velvety, or plush-like appearance. In its native habitat it bears clusters of showy yellow flowers, succeeded by edible fruits the size of a walnut, of gooseberry flavor. A remarkably handsome, rapid growing climber for cov- ering arbors, pergolas, etc. Strong plants, 75 cts. each. AKEBIA QUINATA (Akebia Vine). One of the most graceful of our hardy climbers, with deep green, small foliage, and producing in early spring numberless bunches of violet-brown flowers, which have a pleasant cinnamon odor; most de- sirable for positions where a dense shade is not required. Strong plants, 25 cts. each; $ per doz.; $ per 100. Ampelopsis Engelmanni. A greatly improved variety of the Vir- ginia Creeper, with dense foliage of a glossy light green in summer, changing to a brilliant crimson in the autumn. On a rough stone surface
