PHLOX paniculata (decussata)—The hardy 
perennial Phlox deserve a prominent 
place in all hardy flower borders, or 
where breaks of brilliant colors are re¬ 
quired during July, August and Sept. 
Their large heads of blooms also go a 
long way in floral decorations. Our col¬ 
lection is the result of careful selection 
over a period of many years and we con¬ 
fidently recommend it as consisting of 
the best available varieties. They prefer 
a soil which has been deeply enriched 
and should have plenty of water during 
the summer months, and will repay any 
extra cultivation given them. In very 
hot climates, we recommend light shade 
for them. The flowers will last much 
longer. If plants are cut or pinched back 
just before they begin to bloom, it will 
cause them to bloom from a month to 
six weeks later; Sept, and Oct. Try this.
