TWIN-LARCHES NURSERY, WEST CHESTER, PA. 



White Phlox, continued 



Tapis Blanc. An invaluable Phlox, growing only 

 6 inches tall, with large, branching panicles and 

 individual flowers of better size than any other 

 white. Ideal Cor edging. 25 cts. 



Miss Lingard. This variety belongs to the 

 early-flowering Suffruticosa section, and is dis- 

 tinguished by its polished, deep green foliage. A 

 tall grower, with medium-sized pure white flowers 

 with a faint lilac eye. Beginning in May, it blooms 

 for over two months. A splendid plant, particularly 

 fine for massing. Perhaps the most generally satis- 

 factory of Phloxes. 



RED VARIETIES 



Comte Von Hochberg. Deep velvety claret; 

 the finest of the very dark sorts. 25 cts. 



Sigrid Arnoldson. Rich, deep, cerise-crimson; 

 to my mind the finest color among Phloxes. Tall, 

 strong grower. 25 cts. 



Rosenberg. Very brilliant magenta, with darker 

 eye; one of the very few fine Phloxes of its color, and 

 in combination with the whites, a very effective sort. 



Goliath. Unusually tall grower, 3>2 to 4 feet. 

 Large trusses of brilliant light crimson, with deeper 

 eye. Very striking. 25 cts. 



Fernand Cortez. Very deep rose-red, overlaid 

 with a curious bronzy sheen. 



Coquelicot. Intense light coppery scarlet, with 

 deep red eye. It was the first Phlox of its color, and 

 is probably still the best. Dr. Konigshofer, sup- 

 posedly an improvement, is exactly the same as 

 Coquelicot. Branching grower. 



G. A. Strohlein. Brilliant deep orange-scarlet, 

 fading to cerise. Extremely large flowers. One of 

 the finest of Phloxes. 25 cts. 



Baron Van Dedem. Bright salmon-scarlet, 

 fading to cherry-red. Very showy flower, and a 

 strong grower. 



Gen. Van Heutz. Rich salmon-red, with slar- 

 sh-iped center of white. This white center is very 

 Variable, however; sometimes it is entirely absent, 

 m which case the flower is quite similar to Baron Van 

 Dedem, though of a rather more pinkish tone. 

 Branching grower. At its best a very distinct Phlox. 

 25 cts. 



PINK VARIETIES 



Mme. Paul Dutrie. Very delicate pale cool pink, 

 ol a lilac tone, like some orchids; an exquisite 

 shade. Fine, large flowers; tall grower. 

 . Hervor. Soft lilac-pink of a tone nearly approach- 

 ing old-rose, with a white, star-shaped' center. A 

 lovely variety 1 ; fine in masses. Large. 25 cts. 



R. P. Struthers. Pure, clear pink, with a deep 

 cherry-red eye. A fine old variety. 



Rijnstroom. Uniform rich rose-pink; the finest 

 Phlox ol its color. Flowers and trusses of execptiona" 

 size. 25 cts. 



Elisabeth Campbell. This variety has rapidly 

 become the most popular of Phloxes, and with good 

 reason. Rather dwarf grower, with very large flow- 

 ers. Color soft warm pink, of a salmon tOrt^ shaded 

 while toward the center, with an inconspicuous 

 dark eye. The finest pink of its tone among hardv 

 plants, 25 cts. 



Loki. Deep, brilliant salmon-pink, with a crimson 

 eye; slightly lighter in tone than the new Thor 

 Compact, low grower; late. A fine Phlox, that seems 

 to be little known. 25 cts. 



PURPLE VARIETIES 



Selma. Tall grower. Large flowers of a soft 

 pale rose-pink, with a huge crimson center. Beautiful. 



Hanny Pfleiderer. White, washed with pale 

 pink, deepening to a cherry-red center. Dwarf, com- 

 pact grower. Extra-large flowers. Very delicate color. 



Asia. Very large trusses; pale lilac, with a deep 

 crimson center. 



Crepuscule. Extra-large flowers, shading from a 

 deep crimson center through lilac-rose to a white 

 edge. Distinct. 25 cts. 



Le Mahdi. Rich reddish purple, with metallic re- 

 flections. Toward evening, or by artificial light, the 

 color changes to a deep slaty violet. Very fine. 



Eugene Danzanvilliers. Soft lavender, with 

 lighter center. Strong, tall grower, with large 

 flowers. An invaluable variety. 



Widar. Light reddish purple, with large, white 

 center. Very striking. 25 cts.

Phlox divaricata 



Perry's Variety. This is an improved form of 

 our native Divaricata Canadensis, and has proved to 

 be the most valuable of early-blooming perennials. 

 It is a good, robust grower, 12 to 18 inches in height, 

 with very large panicles of flowers of a delightful 

 soft lavender, a shade that is unusually line in masses. 

 It is ideal for combining with May-flowering tulips, 

 in shades of pale yellow and old-rose, or with irises 

 like Flavescens, and Mrs. Alan Gray. It can easily 

 be naturalized, and best of all, it has the remarkable 

 habit of blooming steadily from the latter part of 

 April to the latter part of June. 25 cts.
