BUCKBEE'S 

 MEDAL PHLOX. 



Little need be said in favor 

 ^ of tliis grand annual, as it has 



remained a favorite for so 

 many years. For a mass of 

 splendid colors and a constant displaj' it is not excelled by any 

 other flower, and no plant will give more satisfactory returns for 

 the outlay than this. The colors range from the purest white to 

 the deepest crimson, almost purple, and yellow and sti'iped, the 

 clear eye being especially beautiful and cliaracteristic. The seed 

 sown early in May will yield a continuous mass of bloom all sum- 

 mer and "autumn. The Phlox has been so improved the past few 

 years that I quote only the latest and finest varieties. 

 Star Shaped Mixed — This is an entirely distinct variety,. and 

 very beautiful. The petals, unlike the other varieties, are part- 

 ly fringed and serrated m such a manner as to give tliem a star- 

 like appearance. The beauty is enhanced by a white margin 

 which borders the edges of the petals in many instances. They 

 must be seen to be appi'eciated. Pkt. 5c.
