No. 780, 
PHLOX NIVALIS. 
ölen, Order. : 
PENTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
This is a native of Carolina and Georgia. 
It was sent to us by our excellent friend Dr. 
Wray, of Augusta, and flowered beautifully 
the last spring. We think it so different 
from both subulata and setacea, that it may 
well form another species. 
It is probably not quite hardy: we pre- 
served it very well in a cold frame, and 
have increased it by cuttings. The soil 
should be light loam, with a little peat 
mixed. Like the setacea, it appears to 
partly shrubby.
