PHLOX DRUMMONDII 
GRANDIFLORA 
The Gi'andiflora vai-ieties aie far superior to the ordi- 
nary strain of Phlox Druimnondii ; the flowers, 
which are of various rich and beautiful colours, 
have in many of the varieties large and conspic-

to the perennial sorts. This improved strain 
almost rivals the Verbena for bedding purposes.
