^ PHI.OX DRUMMONDI. 



The annual Phlox is a native of Texas, 

 where it is called " Texan Pride." It occu 

 pies 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 jiosition, but prefers a 

 light, rich loam. .Seed may be sown in the 

 open ground any time after danger from frosi 

 IS past, and in a few weekslhey area 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.
