lhe Creeping Phloxes have a charming beauty all their own, and, for general usefulness, are not to be surpassed by any 
flower that grows. They will thrive in any situation, except a very shady one ; and in any soil, no matter how poor, unless 
it is very wet. They are absolutely hardy without protection ; hardy last winter, which killed millions of plants and shrubs, 
and even trees. They have neat evergreen foliage, and when in bloom, which is during the month of May, their multitude 
of lovely pink, white or blue flowers cover everything beneath as completely as a carpet covers a floor. They bloom again 
in September, but not so freely. For covering rocky hillsides, sandy slopes, bare ground too poor to grow anything else, or 
for edging borders of hardy plants or shrubs, they are unsurpassed. Our President literally uses these plants by hundreds of 
thousands in his landscape work, and wherever he uses them there is a large demand for them. Just think of it! The 
splendid, inexpensive hardy plants, which increase fourfold every year, are almost unknown, while commonplace geraniums, 
with not one-tenth their beauty, are planted by the million, and must .be planted annually. 
The Creeping Phloxes can be planted advantageously in September and until the fifteenth of October. As we grow 
them by the acre, we can offer them in quantity at very low prices, which are given below.
