DWARF VARIETIES 
PHLOX DRUMMONDI 
(Flame Flower) 
The hardy annual Phloxes are dazzling in effect, 
particularly so when sown in masses or ribbon 
beds of contrasting colors. Few flowers are so 
easy to grow from seed, so pretty and compact in 
habit, so quick to bloom, or give such a brilliant 
display of color for so little cost and care. There 
are few desirable colors beyond their range, and 
if given a good soil and plenty of water, they will 
furnish a long supply of delicate flowers. For pot 
culture dwarf varieties are valuable and as an 
undergrowth for tall, bare-stemmed plants they 
are also valuable. The first sowings should be 
made as soon as the frost is out of the ground in 
spring, later ones in May, either where the plants 
are to bloom, or in a seed-bed, as the Phlox trans- 
plants readily. In transplanting set the taller 
kinds about a foot apart; if planted too thickly 
they suffer from mildew. Cutting away the flow- 
ers and seed pods makes the plants more bushy 
and compact, and lengthens their blooming time. 
Average height, 1 ft. 
Plants of this charming section grow only 6 to 
8 inches high and form dense masses of bloom 
all summer. They are especially useful for beds, 
edgings, pots, etc.
