PHYSALIS (Chinese Lantern) [hP-18 in.] Suggestive of the Orient 

 are the orange red colors of this Japanese plant. The flaming lan- 

 terns are unique in form. Ranged as they are along stiff stems they 

 are effective for winter decoration in the house. Either with silvery 

 Lunaria or with perennial Baby's Breath (Gypsophila paniculata), 

 they are of special beauty. Pods do not usually develop until the 

 second year, but the small yellow and brown flowers are unob- 

 trusively pleasing, and Physalis is a valuable addition to any peren- 

 nial border. The plants grow easily from seed and tend to self-sow.

PHLOX DRUMMONDI [hA] Early Texas settlers were delighted 

 with the wild Phlox that made the landscape vivid with color. By 

 selection and breeding, these American wild flowers have become 

 more regular and compact in habit, the blossoms have become 

 larger and better in shape, and the clusters more dense and sym- 

 metrical. Today the plants bear many broad clusters of large five- 

 petaled flowers. For variety of bright fresh colorings they are un- 

 equalled, and they flower freely during the entire summer.

PHYSOSTEGIA (False Dragon Head) [hP-3 ft.] In midsummer 

 when hardy borders often lack bloom, this perennial comes into 

 flower. From the spreading roots rise many erect, slender, wand- 

 like stems decorated with narrow pointed leaves. Terminally they 

 carry tapering floral spikes 6 to 8 inches long, bearing rows of small 

 tubular blossoms set on four sides of the stem. The individual 

 florets slightly resemble the Snapdragon and are a delightful shade 

 of rosy lilac. An effective border plant and desirable for cutting.
