brilliancy. We may well be proud of this distinctively 
A merican (lower,for it is extremely beautiful, neat in growth 
and an extraordinary bloomer. The. newer sorts of Phlox 
are so far ahead of the older varieties, that we have dis¬ 
carded all the latter, and offer none but those beautiful new 
ones of recent introduction. The Phlox make beautiful 
ribbon beds when different colors are sown side by side, and 
are also grand for masses of solid color. Per pkt.

Childs* Star—Nothing else in the Phlox line has ever 
created such a sensation as the unique German 
strains of Fimbriata, Cuspiduta and Star of Quedlin- 
burg, when introduced a few years ago. Their large 
size, and their curiously pointed,fringed and toothed 
blooms- utterly unlike anything else—took the floral 
world by storm. Unfortunately these flowers were 
muddy and indistinct, in coloring. This we under¬ 
took to remedy by hybridization between the new 
incised sorts and the old brilliant sorts of regular 
form, and we are more than satisfied with our suc¬ 
cess. We have succeeded in retaining the much ad¬ 
mired forms of the German strains while the colors 
of our improved hybrids are of every conceivable 
shade, more than a hundred distinct "tints, shades, 
colors and combinations having been counted among 
them. Scarcely two plants can he found of the s&mo 
shape and color. If you want something odd. new 
and striding, try Childs’ Star Phlox...10 & XI 
Childs’ Jubilee This strain of Phlox is as superior to 
other Phlox of regular outline.as our new Star Phlox 
are to the ordinary strains of Fimbriata Phlox. The 
flowers of Childs’Jubilee Phlox are of great sub¬ 
stance, beautiful form and uncommon size.while the 
colors are extraordinarily rieh and varied, glowing 
crimson, dazzling scarlet, deop rose, soft pink, pale 
blush, maroon black, lavender purple and number¬ 
less other rare shades, many with contrasting eyes, 
stripes or featherings. Inhabit these new Phloxes 
are erect, rather than procumbent and hear their vel¬ 
vety blossoms in greni profusion, making them un¬ 
rivaled for bedding. They are of dwarf stout brandl¬ 
ing habit, always standing erect, and the individual 
flowers t he size of a twenty dollar gold coin. The 
grandest of all Phloxes.10 & 20 
SPECI AL OFFER For only 75c. we will send one packet cadi 
of those fifteen finest Phloxes. 
f2T“For several years one of the chief attractions at 
Floral Park, and one which pleased visitors greatly has been 
the acre patch of Childs’ Jubilee Phloxes, which we annu¬ 
ally grow. Such large flowers, such varied colors, and such 
a great mass of dazzling brightness cannot be found else, 
where in this country.
