PROPAGATION OF HARDY PHLOX 



\lo\\ do you propagate hardy phlox? 

 I notice s))ots on it great many leaves 

 similar to strawlierrv rust. Is it detri 

 iieiittil.' ' ('. L. H. 



There are several methods of propagat- 

 ing hardy phlox, but th" most satisfac- 

 (ory method is to take cuttings in early 

 ■ipring, as soon as the plants start to 

 grow. Place these in an ordinary prop- 

 igating bench, and treat as you would 

 mums or carnations, and they will root 

 uithin three weeks. The best plan, when 

 the cuttings are rooted, is to jjot off 

 ■singly and latter transplant to nursery 

 rows, but if a cool, moist ilay is selected 

 few cuttings will fail if ttiken directly 

 from the cutting bench to the open 

 ground. These cuttings will produce 

 large he.ads of bloom in Sei)tember. 



The spotting of the ftdiage is not at 

 all uncommon, ])eing especially b;id on 

 Miss IJngard. It is nothing serious, and 

 1 have never deemed it of sulHcient ini 

 |Hirtiiii('(^ to sprnv the foliage.
