HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA, PA., WHOLESALE PRICE LIST 



NEW HARDY PHLOX ARENDSI 



A New Race of Phloxes, P. Arendsi, 



At the great international exhibition held in London in May, 1912, 

 •where this new type of Phlox received an award of merit, no other 

 •new plant in the Hardy Perennial class attracted such great atten- 

 tion. This new type originated through the successful crossing of 

 the early-flowering popular Phlox Divaricata Canadensis with the 

 showy hardy herbaceous varieties of Phlox Decussata. The plants 

 are of vigorous, branching habit, growing, according to the variety, 

 from twelve to twenty-four inches high. Coming into flower dur- 

 ing the latter part of May, they continue in good condition for 

 nearly two months. 



From a large number of varieties, the introducer has selected for 

 us six of the most distinct sorts. 

 Amanda. The dwarfest of the collection growing but 12 inches 



high, very bushy, flowers delicate lilac with deeper centre. 

 Charlotte. Grows eighteen to twenty-four inches high, flowers 

 very large, pale lilac shaded pink, with a prominent dark eye; 

 one of the best. 

 Crete. Plant of very branching habit, twenty inches high, pro- 

 ducing great masses of medium-sized white flowers. 

 Helene, Of a beautiful lavender-blue color, similar to Divaricata 



Canadensis. Shapely plant, fifteen to eighteen inches high. 

 Kasthe. Stems loosely branched, about twenty inches high, flow- 

 ers purplish-rose, with a dark eye, surrounded by a lighter halo. 

 Lulse. A strong-growing variety, about two feet high, light lilac 

 flowers with a carmine eye. 



Price. 15 cts. each; $1.50 per dozen; $10.00 per 100. 



Early Flowering Hardy Phloxes (P. Suffruticosa). 



While this type does not contain the rich colors which are a 

 feature of the other well-known sorts, it is invaluable on account 

 of coming into bloom in May, or fully six weeks earlier than the 

 others, and continuing throughout the season. 

 Clouded Gem. White, suffused with rose. 

 Miss Llngard. The grand, free-flowering early white. 

 Hercules. Bright rosy lilac. 

 Mrs. Dalrymple. White shaded rose; scarlet eye.

Papaver Orientale (Oriental Poppy). 



It is not possible to satisfactorily transplant Oriental Poppies from 



the field in the spring. The stock which we offer is all one-year old 



field-grown, which was lifted and potted up into 3 and 4-inch pots 



during August and can be transplanted without any check. 



Perry's White. Unquestionably the most important addition to 

 our list of Poppies for many years. We offered it for the first 

 time last season, and those who planted and flowered it were 

 pleased. It is the most distinct break yet. the large flowers 

 being of a pure satiny white, with a crimson-maroon blotch at 

 the base of each petal. 35 cts. each; $3.50 per doz.; $25.00 per 100. 



Perry's Pigmy. Another distinct development and likely to be 

 the forerunner of a new race of Oriental Poppres. The flowers 

 of this novelty are no larger than those of the Iceland Poppies, 

 but with the true Oriental form and of a pleasing soft salmon- 

 rose color; a dainty flower. 35 cts. each; $3.50 per doz.; $25.00 

 per 100. 



Lady Frederick Moore. The flowers of this delightful variety are 

 of a beautiful shade of clear salmon-pink, with a very conspicu- 

 ous black blotch at the base of each petal. They measure seven 

 inches in diameter. 35 cts. each; $3.50 per doz.; $25.00 per 100.
