Clematis: The Queen of Climbing Plants
There is no more ornamental class of plants than Clematis, and the rich show of bloom produced by the best varieties is far too magnificent to be fairly portrayed by the best of pictures.  The flowers are of large size, measuring four to six inches and sometimes eight inches in diameter.  We presume every one of our customers who sees Clematis plants in bloom each summer promises to plant some in his own yard or garden at the next opportunity.  They are especially adapted to open lawns or house fronts in the city or country.  Perfectly hardy, bearing beautiful and lasting flowers.  The three large-flowered varieties shown in this circular are, with the small-flowered, sweet-scented Paniculata, the best varieties in cultivation.
Henryi (White)
A vigorous grower and a free bloomer, producing its large pure white flowers constantly during summer and early autumn.  The best large-flowered pure white variety.
Cultivation
Plant in a sunny spot in good garden soil, dug very deep, placing the crown of the roots three inches below the surface of the soil.  We recommend the application of well-rotted manure in holes a few inches away from the plant in opposite directions.  The feeding roots reach out to these holes, which may be watered freely, with better success than when the manure is applied directly to the base of the plant.
Well rooted and Ripened Plants from 2½ inch Pots, $2.50 Per Dozen,  $15.00 Per Hundred

Jackmani (Purple)
The flowers are large, intense rich velvety violet-purple, and are produced in such masses as to form a cloud of bloom.  Although introduced more than forty years ago, the Jackmani has maintained its place as the best known Clematis, with few equals and no superiors.
Cultivation
Plant in a sunny spot in good garden soil, dug very deep, placing the crown of the roots three inches below the surface of the soil.  We recommend the application of well-rotted manure in holes a few inches away from the plant in opposite directions.  The feeding roots reach out to these holes, which may be watered freely, with better success than when the manure is applied directly to the base of the plant.

Madame Edouard Andre (Red)
The nearest approach to a bright red yet offered.  Of the Jackmani type, with large six-petaled flowers of a distinct, pleasing shade of carmine, borne in great profusion.
