HARDY PERENNIAL PHLOX 
T HIS is one of the most easily grown hardy 
perennials, and the large number of beauti¬ 
ful varieties now offered make it especially 
desirable. These noble flowers are not only 
beautiful as individuals, but the cheerful appear¬ 
ance of our gardens during the summer and au¬ 
tumn months is much indebted to them. They 
succeed in any position or soil, and can be used 
to advantage either as single specimens in the 
mixed border or as large clumps or beds on the 
lawn. To produce the best results, however, 
they should have a rich, deep and rather moist 
soil, and let each clump have a space of from 
two to three feet in which to develop. They will 
continue to thrive for several years with little 
attention, as is attested by the fine clumps about 
old homesteads. The ease with which they are 
cultivated, their entire hardiness and the ex¬ 
tended time of blooming, combined with the 
varied and beautiful coloring, make them espe¬ 
cially valuable for garden planting. The Per¬ 
ennial Phlox usually commence to bloom in 
early summer, and are brilliant with color until 
after several frosts have come. They are ad¬ 
mirably adapted for cemetery planting, also for 
a low hedge or screen to hide old fences and 
unsightly objects. Do not fail to plant Phlox in 
the fall, any time from September until the 
ground is frozen. Price, 10 cents each; six for 
50 cents. The entire set of thirty-one distinct 
standard varieties of Hardy Phlox for $2.25. 
Phlox planted in a hardy border.
