Candida—This is the \rery best of all white flowering Wiegelias. It produces a great profusion of pure white flowers in June, and continues to bloom through the entire summer. Desboisii—A beautiful variety, with deep rose colored flowers, resembling Rosea, but much darker. One of the darkest and best. Hortensis Nivea—Flowers pure white, retaining their purity during the whole time of flowering; foliage large; habit vigorous; a very profuse bloomer. Rosea—An elegant shrub, with fine, rose- colored leaves. Introduced from China by Mr. Fortune, and considered one of the finest plants he has discovered. Quite hardy; blooms in May. Variegated-Leaved — Leaves bordered with yellowish-white, finely marked; flowers bright pink. AMPELOPSIS. American Ivy or Virginia Creeper (Quinquefolia)—A very rapid grower, having beautiful, dark green foliage which assumes rich crimson hues in au- tumn. Like the Ivy and Trumpet vines, it throws out tendrils and roots at the joints, by which it fastens itself to any- thing it touches. One of the finest vines for covering walls, verandas, etc. Veitchii (Veich's Ampelopsis)—Japan. Leaves a little smaller and more i\y- like in form than the foregoing. Over- lapping each other, they form a dense sheet of green. The plant requires a little protection the first winter until it is established, but after that it may be safely left to care for itself. It grows rapidly and clings to the surface of even a painted brick wall with great tenacity. The foliage is especially handsome in summer and changes to scarlet crimson in autumn. For cov- ering walls, stumps of trees, rocks, etc., no plant is more usef
