PHLOX DRUMMONDI COCCINEA 

 FL. SEMI PLENO. 



The plants grow more compact than the single flowered, 

 ■while the trusses and the individual tlowers are equal in 

 size to those of the dwarf compact varieties. The double- 

 ness of the tlowers is formed by an addition of 4 to 6 petals 

 in the middle or tube of the flower, which, according to 

 the weather, is sometimes more or less dense; it also hap- 

 pens that double and single flowers are found in one truss.

DOUBLE WHITE PHLOX DRUMMONDL 



A profuse bloomer, and of great value for bouquets, as it 

 blooms at a season when white flowers are especially de- 

 sirable.* About 80 per cent, of the seed sown will produce 

 double flowers. A bed of this variety makes an excellent 

 displav.

PoMPONE Zinnia. 



VERBENA COMPACTA, SNOWBALL. 



This variety grows into a compact bush instead of being 

 of straggling hubit. For planting among Phlox and other 

 bushy plants it will be found invaluable. The umbels are 

 large and bear medium-sized pure white flowers. As it 

 can be kept down to a height of 5 or 6 inches, it will 

 doubtless prove of value as an edging plant.
