HARDY PHLOX 
This is one of the most useful flowers for Summer decorations, the colors 
varying from pure white to deep crimson. They succeed in any soil, 
but to obtain the best 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 olanted they require no attention 
for several years, but it is advisable to renew them about every fifth 
year. 
Phlox flower from the early part of July to the middle of September 
and they grow to the heights varying from 1 to 3 and even 4 feet. 
If the first flower spikes are cut off as soon as over, and the plants 
are given a good soaking, a second crop of bloom extending 'til late 
in the Fall may be expected.
