This field of Farr Phlox shows fhe fype of planf and bloom produced by our methods of growing 
Phlox (or Fragrance and Brilliance 
Phlox are generally conceded to be among the “Best 10 Perennials,” and there is no question about their 
being one of the very best summer-blooming perennials. 
Phlox cultural requirements are few but vitally essential for good results, and good Phlox results 
will lift any garden out of the general summer bleakness too often noticed. 
First, and most important, keep Phlox well fed. They are 
especially heavy feeders. Use commercial fertilizers, of which 
Vigoro is one of the best. Manure may cause blight. 
Second, avoid heavily shaded locations and mix sand with a 
heavy soil. Avoid late fall (after November 1 ) planting in 
northern states. 
Third, spray regularly with Tri-ogen (See Page 2) to pre¬ 
vent and cure Mildew and Red Spider. 
Fourth, cut faded blooms so that seeds will not drop and 
develop into wild and parent-killing seedlings; also to encour¬ 
age a later crop of bloom. 
Fifth, apply lawn sprinkler during bloom season, one-half 
day each week. Use Farr-bred plants and order early. Good 
Phlox plants are scarce, cost money to grow and pack, and are 
well worth our price, which is not the highest or the lowest.

included in recent Phlox Bulletin by A. M. S. Pridham, Cornell University.
