AMPEEOPSIS VEITCHI (Boston Ivy, or Japan Ivy) The most popular climbing plant for covering brick, stone or wooden walls, trees, etc.; when it becomes established it is of very rapid growth, and clings to the smoothest surface with the tenacity of ivy; the foliage is of a rich olive green dur- ing the summer, changing to various shades of bright crimson and scarlet in the fall. In planting Ampelopsis of all kinds, the plants, if still in a dormant condi- tion, should be cut down to within 6 inches of the ground, so that the new growth may cling to the wall or tree from the bottom up. (See cut.) Two-year-old plants, 50 cts. each; $ per doz.; $ per 100. (188) Ampeldpsis Veitchi
