CENTRAL REXALL DRUG Main and Central By EDNA KING MANDEVILLE In my last article I told you about a number of climbers that could be most useful in beautifying your garden and screening out unwanted back grounds. Today I shall write about some special favorites of mine that I am sure you would enjoy in your garden. First, there is the black-eyed- susan vine which is also called thunbergia. A more at tractive little vine I never did see. The flowers have black centers with white, yellow and orange petals. Unless en couraged to climb, it will trail along the ground. It is very effective in a rock garden. Then there is the old fash ioned nasturtium. The single variety is more of a climber than the double. This is one of the few climbers that pro duces flowers that make ex cellent cut flowers. As you know, it comes in many lovely colors. I think the all-time favorite among climbers is the morn ing glory, whose beautiful colors add something to any garden, even while screening out an unwanted view. And what a choice of colors there are! In blue we have the heavenly blue, summer skies, and blue star. For red there is the lovely giant Scarlett O'Hara. Then there is a dis tinctly new color for morning glories candy pink, clear and sparkling like the pink of cherry blossoms. The Cornell morning glory combines red and white, having large red flowers banded with pure white borders. And of course we cannot forget to mention the loveliness of the giant pure white flowered morning glory called pearly gates. I know you'll share my en thusiasm for these colorful varieties. . And ' with all this beauty, there is now still another en tirely new morning glory to take its place proudly on this impressive list. The new sun rise -serenade morning glory, recently developed by the plant breeding experts, is being introduced this year for the first time. Furthermore, if you've never seen 'a fully double morning glory, you've really got a treat coming when you grow sunrise ser enade. Its flowers are so com pletely double and so ruffled that you'll think you are growing carnations on a vine! Each blossom ' measures from IV2 to 2 inches across, with many petals giving a delight fully ruffled effect as beauti ful as the name implies. In addition, sunrise serenade of fers a full range of lovely colors, perfect for ground cover or for climbing. I'm sure you'll want to be the first in your neighborhood to enjoy the exciting adventure of see ing this beauty unfold in your garden! I wouldn't want to close the subject of climbers with out a brief mention of the annual sweet pea. These climb ers are grown primarily for their flowers, which add a col orful touch to gardens and bouquets. The choice of colors is almost limitless. Two ex pertly developed varieties of the past few years are the multiflora and the heat re sistant floribunda strains. You'll be missing a great deal if you don't try them your self. One final word: there is a decided advantage in using annual rather than perennial climbers. Just as you might desire new spring clothing each year, so too might you prefer a change of color or Valley Navy Mothers Plan Tour of Store Rogue Valley Navy Moth ers club will meet Tuesday, April 15, at 10 a.m. at the Weeks and .
