PHLOX 
PKlOX—C ontinued. 
Count Zeppelin Three $0.55, Doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00 
(Graf Zeppelin). Pure white flowers with vermilion-red eye. 
A striking, clean looking Phlox. There Is no fading or suffus¬ 
ing of color. Considered the best of the so-called calico types. 
Very free-flowering, and a good grower. The plants reach a 
height of about 30 inches. 
Dally Sketch Three $1.40, Doz. $4.00, 100 $30.00 
This variety possesses compelling beauty. It is vigorous in 
growth and reaches a height of about 3 feet. The flower 
trusses are enormous and the individual florets are extra large. 
Color, salmon-pink with vivid crimson eye. A splendid and 
worth-while English novelty. 
Elizabeth Campbell Three $0.75, Doz. $2.00, 100 $15.00 
Light salmon-pink with lighter shadings toward the center of 
flower. Decidedly the finest Phlox of this color, but unfor¬ 
tunately, a weak variety and slow grower, requiring more 
care and attention than most varieties. 
Enchantress Three $0.55, Doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00 
Bright salmon-pink with dark eye, resembling Elizabeth Camp¬ 
bell in rich green, glossy foliage. 
Ethel PTltchard Three $0.75, Doz. $2.00, 100 $15.00 
A delightfully French-mauve colored Phlox, which, if seen on 
a cloudy day, looks almost as pale blue as our native Phlox 
Divaricata. It is a strong grower, flowers freely and should 
be planted with white or yellow flowers to look its best. Fairly 
tall grower. 
Europa Three $0.55, Doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00 
White changing to a pale blush-white toward center with a 
red eye. This variety is similar to Count Zeppelin but has a 
light pinkish cast to it. Produces large heads freely and is a 
good, strong grower of medium height. 
Evelyn Three $0.55, Doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00 
A new variety of excellent habit. Flower heads are full and 
large. Color is a rich salmon-rose; about 3 feet high. 
Fuerbrand Three $0.55, Doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00 
(Fireglow). Brilliant orange-scarlet. Sometimes almost ver¬ 
milion. Flowers very freely and blooms are produced in quan¬ 
tity throughout the entire season. Of medium height, and one 
of the most brilliant Phlox known. 
Jules Sandeau Three $0.55, Doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00 
Rather dwarf in habit, but producing very large heads of bril¬ 
liant watermelon-pink blossoms. An outstanding variety be¬ 
cause it flowers more freely and longer than most Phlox, and 
is practically free from red spider. We consider it the best 
of its color. 
Eeo Schlageter Three $1.20, Doz. $3.50, 100 $25.00 
Seldom has one seen a shade of red such as is produced by 
this fine new Phlox. Its brilliant scarlet blooms seem to glow 
with fire. This impression is heightened by the fact that there 
seems to be a decided orange cast to the blooms. Of splendid 
habit, about 3 feet high with full rich heads of bloom early. 
The best red Phlox in existence today. 
Lord Raleigh Three $0.40, Doz. $1.00, 100 $7.00

riety. Free flowering and rather tall. Excellent with yellow 
and white. 
Maid Marlon Three $0.55, Doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00 
Good lilac flower heads. Not a new variety but an excellent 
kind that will be with us a long time. The color and habit are 
very similar to that of Antonin Mercier but grows a little 
taller when well established. 
Miss Iiingard Three $0.65, Doz. $1.70, 100 $12.00 
This variety is not a Decussata type like all the others in the 
list, but a Suffruticosa. The distinguishing marks are that it 
flowers a month earlier than the Decussata sorts. Has beau¬ 
tiful long, shiny green foliage, and is absolutely free from 
any disease. It flowers from early June until October with 
large heads of white flowers with faint pink shadings in cen- 
ter. It is the best early white Phlox known. 
Miss Verboom Three $1.00, Doz. $3.00, 100 $20.00 
We eons^er this one of the best new Phlox. Its greatest con- 
tribution is its early flowering. This in fact, is the rose form 
of Miss Lingard. Habit and foliage are the same; flowers 
early in June. 
Jenkins . ^ , Three $0.40, Doz. $1.00, 100 $7.00 
(Independence). Pure white; late flowering'; grows very fast 
and is of medium height. A splendid sort for planting in 
masses. Few varieties equal its free-flowering habit. Free 
from any disease and can always be depended on. An old sort 
out worth while.
