BEAUTIFUL HARDY PHLOX 
Hardy Phlox Plants 
This is one of the most useful flowers for summer decora- 
tions, the colors varying from pure white to deep crimson. 
They are not at all particular as to soil, and are i xceeriingly 
hardy. To obtain good results It is wise to manure the soil 
well and give them a fairly open situation, and an occasional 
soaking of water during very dry weather. Once planted, 
they require no further attention for several years, but it is 
advisable to renew them about every fifth year. ^ . , 
The flowering period is from the early part of .luly to 
the middle of September and they grow to heights vai'ying 
from 1 to 3 and even 4 feet. If the first flower spilips .are 
cut off as .soon as over, and the plants are given a yood •'*oaU- 
ing, a second crop of bloom extending until late in the fall 
may be expected. ^ .
