A hirdy, fast-growing vine, with fragrant chocolate-purple flow" ers ; bears ornamental fruit. Leaves five-lobed, small; of a glossy, deep green hue. AHPELOPSIS, The Japan Ampelopsis (Japan or Boston Ivy ; A. Veitchii). As free in growth as the Virginia Creeper ; will attain the height of fifty feet under ordinary circumstances, and is perfectly hardy ; nothing can compare with the beau- tiful tints the foliage takes on in autumn—in this vine we have all the colors of autumn leaves blended. The increasing demand each season shows the popularity it is at- taining and which it will maintain, for it has no rival. (See cut on back of cover.) Haralis. Larger foliage, and more vigorous grower than the above. BIGXONIA or Trumpet-Flower {Tecoma radicans). A splendid, liardy, climbing plant, with large trumpet-shaped scarlet flowers in August and September; will cling to brick walls. CLEMATIS, Large-Flowering. Within the last few years great attention has been given to these valuable plants, and many elegant varieties have been obtained, bearing magnificent flowers of large size and exquisite coloring. For garden and conservatory decoration, either as climbers on walls, trellises or verandas, old trees or ruins, or as specimens on the lawn, or for massing in large beds on the lawn, they have scarcely an equal, and certainly no superior. Star of tndia. Reddish violet-purple, with red bars ; distinct. Jackmanni. Large, rich violet-purple; of vigorous growth, and the most popular of all. Henryi. White, large. John Gould Veitch. D
