Phlox 
For color in the garden or border in late summer and 
Fall, there is nothing more satisfactory than Phlox. The 
newer varieties which have been introduced in the past 
few years, have been selected for their clear coloring— 
bright scarlet reds, clear pinks and soft lavender and 
deeper shades, avoiding magenta. These, with white, give 
materials for many pleasing color combinations in the 
garden picture. 
Phlox should be planted in well drained, fertile soil and 
separated or thinned every three or four years. This 
allows more air around the foliage and overcomes a ten¬ 
dency to mildew of the lower leaves. We have found that 
dusting the foliage with sulphur is also one of the best 
methods of prevention. As soon as the flowers have fad¬ 
ed, pick off the heads before the seed ripens. This allows 
the plant to make a second flowering and prevents seed¬ 
lings springing up and choking the parent plants. These 
seedlings are usually much inferior in color and cause 
much confusion.
