HARDY PHLOX PANTHEON 



Hardy Perennial Phlox. 



We are the largest growers of Perennial Phlox in the world. Our 

 collection is unequalled, and we are prepared to furnish the new and 

 rare kinds as well as all the popular standard varieties in large quan- 

 tities. 



The plants we offer are nearly all strong one-year-old field grown 

 plants or equally strong divisions, and will make a fine display of 

 flowers this season. This stock is much superior to and must not be 

 confounded with young winter propagated stock such as is generally 

 sent out in the spring of the year.
