Apollo Phlox 
New Hardy Phlox 
Because of the bright showy colors and their long blooming period the 
hardy Phlox are counted among the most highly prized perennials. Enormous ] 
heads of brilliant flowers produced on strong erect stems. Indispensable to 
the hardy border and for general landscape work; also a fine cut flower. We 
have discarded all of the common varieties and otter here only those of recent 
introduction that we know will well repay our customers for the little care . 
they require. They average 2 to 8 feet in height and bloom from June to 
October.

We here select for you three varieties of Phlox that we consider the most 
outstanding for this season, both for color, size of bloom and re.si.stance to 
disease.

standing Phlox of recent introduction. The individual florets of pure bright 
pink average from lyn to 2 inches across. If you only have one variety you
