CLIMBING CONVOLVULUS
TO COVER BARE FENCES. Convolvulus major, or Impomea purpurea, ranks as a valuable subject for clothing porches, screens and bare fences. In sunny positions and welldrained garden soil the plants rapidly attain a height of seven or eight feet or morn. The colours include numerous shades of blue, purple, rose, crimson, white, and prettily striped flowers. Sow the seeds where the plants are to blossom. A dwarf strain, Convolvulus minor, is a free-flowering plant for sunny borders and grows 9in to a foot high. The seed may be sown almost at any time, but it is best to sow during autumn.
