HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS. 



II 



EARLY BLOOMING PHLOX- 



Phlox suffbuticosa. 



Instead of the heavy broad heads of bloom pro- 

 duced by the varieties of P. deciissata, these have 

 long graceful spikes of tiowers. 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 con- 

 tinuing in bloom the entire season until late autumn. 



Beauty of Minion.— ( Moflesty.) Rosy lilac with car- 

 mine rays at center. 



Maculata.— This is a distinct species but resembles 

 P. suffrnticosa in habit. A tall robust grower and 

 produces a veritable blaze of bright color for a long 

 period. Flowers pure magenta, in large, dense pau- 

 irles— foliage always bright and fresh. Very valu- 

 .ilile for massing in landscape work. 



Miss Lingard.— White with lavender eye. The fin- 

 est of the class and perhaps the best of all the 

 Phloxes, (.see illustration and description, page 6).
