We think fall the best time to plant Phlox; any time from the middle of September till into 
November, or early in the spring. The plants can be cut back, so as to occupy but little space, 
and sent at low rates by express or freight. Some varieties grow to be very tall (four feet or more); 
these we designate as “ tall,” others not so tall “ medium,” those which grow about two feet-high 
as “ dwarf.” It is important to know this when planting a bed or border i as the tallest should be 
planted in the background, and the more dwarf ones in front. 
Packing will be free to those who send cash with the order. 
N. B. Our Phloxes have generally taken the first prize at the exhibitions of the Mass. Hor¬ 
ticultural Society for the last ten years. 
We have selected twelve kinds as the best for general cultivation in this country, feeling sure 
they will give good satisfaction. They are all clean distinct flowers, healthy plants, and bright 
colors. Price 20 cents each. $1.50 per dozen (one of each if desired). $8 per 100 for a general 
assortment.
