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 five 

 of the most distinct sorts which we now offer for the first time. 

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

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

 one of the best. 

 Qrete. 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. 

 Kathe. 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. 35 cts. each; $3.50 per dozen. One each of the 5 varieties 

 for $1.50. 



New Phlox, Pilosa Splendens. 



A splendid companion to Phlox Divaricata Canadensis, growing 

 from twelve to fifteen inches high and flowering at the same time, 

 but producing great masses of brilliant rosy-carmine flowers. An 

 excellent border plant. 25 cts. each; $2.50 per dozen.
