Superb Hardy Phlox 



Although not generally known, yet it is a fact nevertheless, that Hardy Phlox planted in the autumn live 

 with scarcely a failure, and flower with far greater freedom the first season than those planted in spring. Too 

 much can scarcely be said of the beauty and usefulness of the Phloxes of today ; the impiovement of recent years 

 being well-nigh marvelous. The list of varieties is very long; I have selected after a careful test the following 

 as the very best of all to cover the whole gamut of color and season. For best effect plant in masses. Do not 

 plant sparingly — a plant of two of a kind does not give a correct idea of the real beauty of the variety it represents.
