HARDY PERENNIAL PHLOX 
This is one of the most easily grown hardy ‘perennials, and the large number of beautiful varieties now offered makes it 
especially desirable. These noble flowers are not only beautiful as individuals, but the cheerful appearance of our gardens dur- 
ing the summer and autumn months is much indebted to them. They succeed in any position or soil, and can be used to advantage 
either as single specimens in the mixed border or as large clumps or beds on the lawn. To produce the best results, however, they 
should have a rich, deep and rather moist soil, and let each clump have a space of from two to three feet in which to develop. 
They will continue to thrive for several years with little attention, as is attested by the fine clumps about old homesteads. The 
case with which they are cultivated, their enfire hardiness and the extended time of blooming, combined with the varied and 
beautiful coloring, make them especially valuable for garden planting. The Perennial Phlox usually commence to bloom in early 
summer, and are brilliant with color until after several frosts have come. They are admirably adapted for cemetery planting, 
also for a low hedge or screen to hide old fences and unsightly objects. Plant Phlox; they take care of themselves and get 
better each year.
