CobcFa Scandens, or Mexican Glory. Four Grand Summer Vines* The four vines here offered are of such sterhng merit for use in summer decoration that we feel protid of the oppOr- tunitv to offer them together: Cobaea Scandens or Mexican Glory. Ahhough not a new plant, there is no vine that is so splendidly adapted to cov- ering trellises, running up porches, houses, old trees, arbors, etc-, and at the same time is so exquisitely beautiful as Cobcea scandens.

Planted with the Moon-flower, they rival each other as to which shall reach the top of roof first, and will all the while displv a purple blossom glory unknown to any other flower or vine.
