HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS. - Continued. 

 HARDY PHLOXES. 



Among the hardy herbaceous plants none are more gorgeous and more 

 easily grown than these. They are perfectly hardy, succeeding in any gar- 

 den soil, and producing magnificent spikes of showy and lasting flowers, 

 year after year, with comparatively little care. The collection of twelve 

 varieties offered include the best of the newer introductions and a full range 

 of the most handsome, showy and brilliant colors. This collection will give 

 a wealth of beautiful blooms from early July until the first frost. If planted 

 in September and kept well supplied with water they will bloom abundantly 

 next summer. 2K to 3 ft.
