HARDY PERENNIAL PHLOX 



This is one of the most easily grown hardy perennials, and the large number of beautiful varieties now offered make it especially 

 desirable. These noble flowers are not only beautiful as individuals, but the cheerful appearance of our gardens during 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 ease with which they are cultivated; their entire 

 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.
