MASSES OF PHLOX SAVE THE GARDEN IN AUGUST 
Danker’s 
utlu Perennial Plants 
i 
O F all the plants that are cultivated for purely ornamental pur¬ 
poses, there are none which have made such rapid strides in 
public favor as the old-fashioned Hardy Garden Flowers, the in¬ 
habitants of the perennial garden. Their popularity is not at all 
surprising when we consider the many varied and pleasant changes 
which take place throughout the entire growing season in a well 
arranged hardy garden, in which every week—yes, every day— 
brings forth something fresh and new to interest and delight even 
the most critical. Beginning in April, the early flowering varieties 
open their flowers, often before the snow has entirely disappeared, 
and continue, with constantly changing variety, throughout the 
Summer, until late in the Fall, when only severe freezing weather 
will stop such persistent late-blooming lunds as Japanese Anem¬ 
ones, Pompon Chrysanthemums, Gaillardias, Phlox, etc. 
Plants are forwarded by express unless instructed to the con¬ 
trary, purchasers paying charges. Small plants may be forward¬ 
ed by Parcel Post, and if wanted sent in this way, add 10 per cent 
to value of order to points east of the Mississippi River and 20 
per cent to points west of same.
