The Loveliest Pink Phlox in Existence 
A WAYSIDE GARDENS PRODUCTION 
U. S. PLANT PATENT No. 118 
cA 
FTER growing this variety you will agree with 
every person that has seen it, that it is the greatest 
Phlox ever introduced. Its strength and vigor is some' 
thing rarely seen in plants. A well grown, two-year-old 
plant will produce from six to fifteen flower spikes. The 
foliage is rich dark green, leaves covering the stems down 
to the ground. Mildew is unknown to this variety. The 
flower stalks are about 2/i feet high, stiff and erect. The 
flowers, when cut, last over a week in water.

RS. FRANCIS KING, America’s great garden 
authority, writes of this Phlox as follows: 
“Columbia, the new cameo-pink Phlox which has just 
risen on the garden horizon is of most exquisite beauty. 
A soft pink recalling that of Elizabeth Campbell but 
lighter, more delicate, and with an eye of light blue which 
has a charming effect upon the general color of the flow¬ 
er, this Phlox grows to 2 or 2/z feet, very bushy, and, a 
fact most marvelous, it has practically no enemies. It 
flourishes after the coldest winter and in the hottest, 
driest summer. Altogether, an amazingly good addition 
to the list of plants which give color and richness to the 
midsummer border.”
