Gladioli, and the taller summer flowers. The foliage is silvery gray. The

where. Does well in all kinds of soil, but should be grown in full sun for

Three $1.50, Doz. $4.50, 100 $30.00 
The Finest American Beauty Red Phlox Ever Introduced 
A strong growing plant of medium height, about 2Vz feet 
when fully grown, with rich bronzy green foliage and stem. 
Color is best described as a brilliant cherry-red, not quite 
as deep as Beacon and much more intense and sparkling. 
The young florets at opening show a decided amount of 
orange. Unlike most Phlox of this color, it does not discolor 
or bleach in the sun. The color remains perfect under all 
weather conditions. Augusta is a beautiful vivid colored 
variety of exceptional growth and qualities, and will eventu¬ 
ally replace all other varieties of similar shade. See page X 
for color illustration. 
COLUMBIA (Plant Patent No. 118) 
Three $1.10, Doz. $3.30, 100 $20.00 
The Finest Light Pink Phlox Ever Introduced 
The color suggests a delicate cameo-pink with faint blue 
shading at center. The effect created by a well-grown 
plant is exquisite and never before seen in Phlox. 
The clearness of tone is remarkable, the brilliancy is so pro¬ 
nounced that immediate attention is given to this wonderful 
plant. As the flower ages, the blooms always retain their 
delicate pink shade; there never are any magenta tones 
visible. 
Out of each leaf joint grows a lateral or secondary flower 
spike continuing the display of blooms long after the main 
flower head has disappeared. Columbia is, therefore, well cal¬ 
led the "perpetual flowering" Phlox. See page X for color 
illustration.
