ABNRY ACDREER 
Dreer’s Superb Hardy Phlox 
Among hardy perennial plants no class is of more importance 
than the Phloxes, succeeding in almost any soil and position; 
and flowering through a long season; and while they will con- 
tinue in good condition and flower freely for many years 
without attention, yet they respond quickly to and are im- 
proved by cultivation.
