PHLOX DRUM MONDI GRANDIFLORA. 
Phlox Drummondi. 
All the varieties of this beautiful class of annuals are worthy 
of extensive cultivation, especially those of th a grandiflora class, 
which produce such a charming profusion and diversity of their 
largo beautifully formed and brilliantly coloured (lowers. Those 
of the compacta section growing only about four to six inches 
in height are also highly desirable, being splendid for massing 
or beds, or for edgings, producing an effect that can probably 
be obtained by no other plant. All the sorts continue in bloom 
for a long season, and apart from their great usefulness for 
bedding are valuable for pot culture in the greenhouse, where 
they will give a beautiful display. Sow the seeds in February, 
March, or early in April, in pans or boxes of light rich soil ; 
sow thinly, press down firmly, cover lightly, water, and place 
in a gentle heat. The young plants will be up in a few days, 
and soon as they can be fairly handled they should be pricked 
out about two inches apart in pans or boxes to strengthen, or 
potted singly into small pots, keep close for a few days, and 
when they are established give abundance of air, keeping 
close to the glass to induce a sturdy growth. May is soon 
enough for planting out, and a rather dry and sunny position 
is to be preferred. The dwarf kinds should be planted about 
eight inches or one foot apart ; the others, which grow from 
nine inches to one foot in height, with a spreading habit, may 
be planted eighteen inches or two feet apart. 
Phlox Drummondi nana compacta. 
A beautiful compact-growing class, many of the varieties 
only four or six inches high ; admirable for pots, edgings, &c.

Phlox Drummondi grandiflora. 
The Grandiflora varieties form a magnificent class ; the plants 
are robust in habit, and the flowers, which are of various rich 
and beautiful colours, have in many of the varieties large con- 
spicuous white eyes ; tho individual blooms are of fine substance 
and scarcely inferior in size to the perennial sorts, and aro a 
decided improvement on the old varieties of P. Drummondi.
