CLEMATIS. Virgin's Bower.  Waldrebe, Ger. Clematite, Fr.
The Clematis are elegant, slender branched shrubs, of rapid growth, handsome foliage and beautiful large flowers of all colors.  The newer varieties introduced within the last five or six years are great acquisitions.  Either in the open ground as pillar plants, bedding plants, single plants in masses or about rock-work, or cultivated in pots or tubs, the Clematis cannot be excelled.
We append the following from the English "Gardener." Jackman's Clematises: "They are magnificent; and more than this, they do give us some of the grandest things in the way of creepers the horticultural world has ever seen, making glorious ornaments either for walls, verandahs, or rustic poles or pillars, varying in color from deep rich violet hue to dark velvety maroon, and in the newer seedling forms, beautiful shades of pale bright blue."
They will stand the severest Winters if the roots are slightly covered.

1779. C. Mrs. James Bateman (Jackman). Bien que n'appartenant pas précisément à la section des C. Jackmani pur sang qui donne une si grande profusion de fleurs, cette variété n'en est pas moins méritante par la succession de celles-ci pendant toute la saison. Elle dérive d'une descendance déjà croisée de ce type et de celui des C. lanuginosa. Son feuillage est large et vigoureux, ses boutons érigés et velus. Ses fleurs ont, le plus souvent, six pétales, et sont, en s'épanouissant, d'un lilas virant au rouge, passant ensuite au lavande clair; ses étamines sont remarquables par leur teinte lilas foncé.

C. MRS. JAMES BATEMAN (Jackman). [Plate II. , fig. 1 . ] -Though not producing the profuse continuous mass of flowers characteristic of the Jackmanni type, this variety is nevertheless a free and successional bloomer, continuing throughout the season to yield an abundant crop of its showy blossoms. It originated from some of the seedlings of the Jackmanni group once more crossed with C. lanuginosa, and produces bold ternate leaves, with large broad cordate acuminate leaflets, the blossom-buds being erect and woolly. The flowers have, for the most part, six sepals, and when they first open are of a deep reddish lilac, this colour passing off to a pale lavender, as the flowers become older ; the tuft of stamens is conspicuous, the anthers being slightly tinted with reddish lilac. The illustration gives a good idea of the appearance of this beautiful variety.
