The name is from phlox, (lame, in 

 allusion to the general brilliancy 

 of the flowers. This is a very 

 elegant genus of flowering 

 plants, being highly colored, es- 

 pecially P. Drummondii , a 11 

 annual, the varieties of which 

 are of the brightest colors. A 

 bed of these will be highly prized 

 for good habit, richness of color, 

 and duration and profusion of 

 bloom. All grow well in pots 

 or as trailers. By making two 

 or more sowings they will flower 

 till frost. Should be grown in 

 rich, loamy soil, and given 

 plenty of water. Especially fine 

 effects may be had by planting 

 masses of contrasting colors.

From showy varieties. Very rich 

 and beautiful, and finely per- 

 fumed ; few flowers are more 

 attractive. 



{Dianthus). Beautiful and orna- 

 mental genus ; for beauty and 

 sweetness contains some of the 

 most prized flowers we possess. 

 The leaves of the hardy peren- 

 nials are green all winter. Many 

 can be grown in pots and kept 

 in the house. No garden should 

 be without some of the varieties 

 of the Dianthus family, which 

 for color and fragrance cannot 

 be surpassed. Pinks succeed 

 well in any fairly rich soil, but 

 when the production of large 

 flowers is aimed at, a bed of 

 turfy loam, leaf-mold and well- 

 decomposed manure should be 

 specially prepared for them. 



Pale green, wavy leaves; fragrant 

 flowers.
