Phlox 
Drummondii 
Beautiful Annual 
Phlox is one of the easiest grown and 
most satisfactory of all summer-flowering 
annuals. Whether sown en masse or as a 
single border, the brilliant colors found 
among Phlox always make a good impres¬ 
sion. One of the most valuable characteristics of this 
annual is its free blooming habit. 
Usually the seed is sown outdoors when the maples 
are coming into leaf. Sow thinly and cover with a 
quarter inch of fine soil. When the young plants are 
about an inch or two tall, they should be carefully thinned to 
allow 4 to 6 inches of space between the plants so that they 
can develop freely. The plants grow 15 inches tall.
