EARLY BLOOMING PHLOX. 



Phlox Suffeuticosa. 



Instead of the heavy, broad heads of bloom produced 

 by the varieties of P. decussata, these have long, graceful 

 spikes of flowers. Although the range of color is limited 

 and in some varieties not very bright and clear, yet these 

 early Phloxes are of great value by reason of coming into 

 flower some weeks in advance of the other varieties, and 

 continuing in bloom the entire season, until late autumn.
