PHLOX DRUIIFONDI. 
The annual Phlox is a native of Texas, and is known 
as ‘‘Texan Pride.’’ It occupies a first place as a garden 
annual, being one of the most brilliant and at the same 
time one of the easiest and most satisfactory plants, which 
can readily be grown from seed, It will grow and thrive 
in any kind of soil if given a sunny position, but prefers a 
light, rich loam. Seed may be sown in the open ground 
any time after danger from frost is past, and in a few weeks 
they are a sheet of bloom, remaining so until frost. They 
may be used in a variety of ways, such as a carpet to 
beds of Roses, in boxes, vases, etc., but it is when 
grown in masses, in beds or borders, that they show 
to best advantage.
