Lovely Hardy Phlox 



(Phlox Decussata) 



Xo hardy Perennials are more satisfactory in 

 the border than these Phloxes. The skill of the 

 hy?jridizer has greatly perfected the Phloxes in 

 recent years, and the varieties of to-day are mod- 

 els of excellence and beauty. I have, after long 

 and careful study, selected the following as the 

 very best of the different colors and types. In a 

 word, they are the cream of the Hardy Phloxes 

 and the list embraces every desirable shade. A 

 special prize was awarded our Hardy Phlox by the

EARLY BLOOMING PHLOX 



(Phlox Suffruticosa) 



Instead of the heavy, broad heads of bloom pro- 

 duced 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. 



BEAUTY OF MINION (Modesty).— Rosy lilac, 

 with carmine ra\s at center. 



FORWARD.— White, with large bright carmine 

 eve.
