PHLOX-SPLENDID AND BARE VARIETIES. 



This interesting family is one of the most beautiful and interesting of the 

 Herbaceous Perennials. The dififerent varieties varying in their time of 

 bloom, cover the entire Summer and Autumn, and, being perfectly hard}^, 

 they may be justly ranked among the most desirable appendages of the 

 flower garden. The family may be divided into three classes at least ; 

 and will, as new varieties are produced, be divided into at least six 

 classes. The Acuminata and Paniculata families are of the tallest growth, 

 and constitute one class ; the Decussata and Pyramidalis varieties consti- 

 tute those of the second class, and of medium stature; and the Suffruti- 

 cosa varieties constitute those of minor height; and with these we may, 

 for the present, unite the creeping varieties, of very humble growth. In 

 arranging flower-borders, the different classes can be placed in accord- 

 ance with their relative size. The collection we ofl"er is the very elite, 

 and altogether unequaled.
