A FTER growing this variety you will agree with every 
Csx. person that has seen it, that it is the greatest Phlox 
ever introduced. Its strength and vigor is something rarely 
seen in plants. A well grown, two-year-old plant will pro¬ 
duce from six to fifteen flower spikes. The foliage is rich 
dark green, leaves covering the stems down to the ground. 
The flower stalks are about 2/z feet high, stiff and erect. 
The flowers, when cut, last over a week in water. 
^’Tyy'RS. FRANCIS KING, America’s great garden 
(Ls 0 L authority, writes of this Phlox as follows: 
“Columbia, the new cameo-pink Phlox which has just 
risen on the garden horizon, is of most exquisite 
beauty. A soft pink recalling that of Elizabeth Camp¬ 
bell but lighter, more delicate, and with an eye of very 
light blue which has a charming effect upon the general 
color of the flower, this Phlox grows to 2 or 2/i feet, 
very bushy, and, a fact most marvelous, it has 
practically no enemies. It flourishes after the 
coldest winter and in the hottest, driest sum¬ 
mer. Altogether, an amazingly good addition 
to the list of plants which give color and rich¬ 
ness to the midsummer border.”
