'Bolgiano^s Hardy Shrubs and Vines For 1911 



61 



We offer our customers in the following list, every- 

 thing that is good and desirable in the hardy line. 

 The planting of hardy plants is growing more gen- 

 eral from year to year, for the reason that when once 

 planted they are permanent, and do not require much 

 care to have them bloom and do well. We designate 

 after each species, whether a plant, shrub or vine. 

 HARDY PHLOX 



Hardy Phlox. Few plants give better satisfaction 

 to the amateur than the Hardy Phloxes. They thrive 

 in any ordinary rich soil. The ease with which they 

 are cultivated, their entire hardiness and the extended 

 season of blooming, combined with the varied and 

 beautiful coloring make them particularly valuable 

 for garden planting. Price for field roots, 15c each, 

 50c for 4, the set of 20 for $2.
