DREER'S 

 SUPERB HARDY PHLOX 



Among hardy perennial plants no class is of more importance than the 

 Phloxes, succeeding in almost any soil and position; and flowering through a 

 long season; and while they will continue in good condition and flower freely 

 for many years without attention, yet they respond quickly to and are im- 

 proved by liberal cultivation. 



FOURTEEN SUPERFINE 



HARDY PHLOX 



The varieties described below, mostly recent introductions of noted Euro- 

 pean specialists, show great advances in color and color combinations, many 

 of the shades being entirely new in Phloxes. 



Astrild. Dense trusses of bright cochineal-carmine, shading deeper towards 



the centre. 

 B. Comte, Brilliant rich French purple. 

 Europa. A white variety with very decided crimson-carmine eye, flowers 



and trusses very large. 

 Elizabeth Campbell. Bright salmon-pink, with lighter shadings and dark 



crimson eye. 

 Qefion. A new color in Phloxes, a tender peachblossom pink, with bright 



rose eye. 



Qrideur. Soft mauve-rose, suffused and overlaid with a lively 

 deep shade of cerise, giving the whole a beautiful mottled ap- 

 pearance. 



Ingeborg. One of the most brilliant Phloxes yet introduced, 

 in color a rich vermilion-red with a lively suffusion of orange- 

 salmon intensified by a small purplish-crimson eye. The in- 

 dividual flowers are of large size, being fully 1£ inches in dia- 

 meter, and are produced in just properly filled, not over- 

 crowded, much branched panicles. The plant is a strong, 

 healthy grower, of medium height. 35 cts. each; $3.50 per 

 doz. 



Mrs. Jenkins. The best all round pure white. 



Riverton Jewel. One of our own introductions which it 

 gives us great pleasure to recommend ; a lovely shade of 

 rr.auve-rose, illuminated by a brilliant carmine-red eye. 



Hardy Phlox 

 A most beautiful salmon-pink with flowers and 



Rheinlander 



trusses of immense size. 



Rynstrom. A great improvement on the popular variety 

 Pantheon; of the same carmine rose color as the Paul Neyron 

 Rose. 



Thor. A most beautiful and lively shade of deep salmon- 

 pink, suffused and overlaid with a deep scarlet glow, large 

 white halo and aniline red eye. This lovely variety will hold 

 the same place among the deep salmon-pinks that the popu- 

 lar " Elizabeth Campbell" holds among the light salmon- 

 pink sorts. 



W. C. Egan. One of the largest flowered varieties in cultiva- 

 tion, color effect a pleasing shade of soft pink. 



WanadlS. Entirely distinct, a mottling of white and light 

 violet, reminding one of the native Phlox Divaricata Cana- 

 densis.
