HARDY PHLOX 
Perennial 
These beautiful hardy border plants are among the 
most effective things in the garden during the late sum¬ 
mer and fall months. The varieties have been much im¬ 
proved during the past few years, both as to color and 
size of pip. To be at their best, they require soil which 
has been deeply enriched and plenty of water during the 
blooming period. It is also well to remember that they 
should never be allowed to go to seed and should be 
divided every three years, or they will become small
