NEW PHLOX COLUMBIA 
By Far The Greatest Phlox Ever Introduced! 
U. S. Plant Patent No. 118. A grand, brand new Phlox with an 
outstanding color, a rich glorious cameo-pink with a faint blue eye. 
The clearness of the color is remarkable, with a brilliance so pro¬ 
nounced that it at once commands attention, the whole effect being 
heightened by the eye of light blue. 
The plant is of remarkable strength and vigor, producing' from six to fifteen 
large flower spikes. Foliage is rich dark green, retained all through the sea¬ 
son without turning brown, and covering the stem right down to the ground. 
Grows 2% feet high and is very bushy. Columbia has no enemies. Red 
Spider does not visit it and mildew does not cover it; it seems to be entirely 
pest free and it is very hardy, flourishing after the coldest winter and in the 
hottest driest summer. Flowers when cut, last over a week in water. You 
will like Columbia. It is the greatest addition to the Phlox family in the past 
ten years, growing everywhere and under almost all soil conditions. 
Price of Columbia: Each, 50c; 3 for ,$1.25; 6 for $2.35; dozen, $4.50, 
postpaid.
