Select Hardy Phlox. 
One of tlu* finest Autumn flowers. It is of v igorous habit, easy culture, and produces in 
great profusion during a long season, flowers of tine form and substance, and of bright and varied 
colors. Just as the Roses are fading, the Phlox puts forth her first flowers, producing a tine suc¬ 
cession of bloom, and prolonging an interesting season at least six weeks. As regards their 
culture, it may be briefly stated that they succeed in any good garden soil, but they are greatly 
improved by being liberally manured, and an occasional supply of liquid manure during the grow ¬ 
ing season will greatly increase the size of their trusses. When in flower they should be watered 
freely every evening. The Phlox usually flowers in July and August, and in order to render it 
HALL'S HONEYSUCKLE. 
Autumnal flowering, it is necessary to pinch the shoots about the first of June, and again in July. 
The plants will then flower in September. For early flowers some of the plants may be left un¬ 
pinched. When two years old the finest trusses are produced. The third year the plants flower 
tolerably well, but they will not keep thrifty and healthy after that. The old plants should then 
be lifted in the Fall, divided and transplanted. But the better plan is to keep up a succession of 
young plants from cuttings by securing a fresh collection every year. We annually introduce all 
new and desirable varieties of home and foreign production. Our collection contains the best 
productions of the celebrated French raiser, Lemoine. See General Catalogue.
