Hardy Perennial Phlox 
For Enchanting Fragrance and 
Bright 
Lasting Color in Your Hardy Border 
FIELD-GROWN, WELL-ROOTED, STURDY PLANTS 
Blooming, as they do, from late in July to October, 
the hardy Phloxes bring a greater glory of color to 
the flower-garden, for a longer period, than any 
other species of flower with such varied and brilliant 
colors. 
The new varieties of Phlox offered below are far 
superior to the old-fashioned kinds, in size of flower 
and truss and also in brilliancy. Phlox are just 
what are needed for radiant, dazzling displays of 
A brilliant border of fragrant Hardy Phlox 
color in late summer and early fall, and they main- 
tain a glorious show throughout July and August 
at a time when few other flowers are at their best. 
They are magnificent when used in masses of solid 
color against evergreens or shrubs and when 
scattered throughout the perennial border they are 
very attractive. Use white varieties at intervals to 
help show the other colors to better advantage. 
In addition to their other virtues, Phlox have an 
appealing, delicate fragrance that is most noticeable 
in the evening, when the dew is on the flowers, and 
what is more enchanting and restful after a ’busy 
day than a quiet stroll with a friend in the dusk 
along fragrant garden paths? 
Summarized, Phlox give you a long season of 
bloom, brilliant colors, and delightful fragrance. 
They are easily grown, quite hardy, and when 
planted in early fall and well established 
before winter, they are ready to make strong 
sturdy plants that will give quantities of 
bloom the following summer. 
CULTURE.—Phlox will thrive in partial 
shade but the colors are brighter when _the 
plants are grown in open sunlight. They 
should have rich soil, and during dry seasons 
see that they get plenty of moisture, for best 
results. If you pinch the tops of the young 
plants they will form more branches and 
bloom longer.
