Dreer's garden book 1916 (1916) Dreer's garden book 1916 dreersgardenbook1916henr Year: 1916 iUBBTADRK-IHIIADflBIIA-W 57 THE CARDINAL CLIMBER 2158 This glorious and absolutely distinct New Annual Climber originated with Mr. Logan Sloter, of Ohio, as the result of a cross between Ipomma Quamoclit, the Cypress Vine, and Ipomma Goccinea, the Star Glory, and was named and intro duced by us exclusively in 1912. We consider it the most beautiful and brilliant annual climber ever sent out. It is a strong and rapid grower, attaining a height of 30 feet or more, with beautiful, fern-like, laciniated foliage, and literally covered with a blaze of circular fiery cardinal-red flowers from mid-summer till frost. The flowers are about 1| inches in diameter, and are borne in clusters of 5 to 7 blossoms each, and wherever it has been grown during the past four seasons has attracted more attention and favorable comment than any other plant in the garden. Like other Ipomceas, it delights in a warm, sunny situation and good soil, seed may be started indoors in March or April in a temperature of not less than 70 degrees and the plants set out when the weather gets warm, but it is just as well to wait until the weather gets warm and settled and then sow out of doors. In either case germination will be hastened and also made more certain by filing or cutting a small notch in each seed. They are likely to germinate poorly unless this precaution is taken. I sown in cold, wet ground the seed is liable to rot. Packets, containing about 15 seeds each, 15 cts.; 2 pkts. for 25 cts.
