Blizabeth Campbell —Discarded for Columbia. 
Bthel Pritchard. A delightfully French-mauve colored Phlox, 
which, if seen on a cloudy day, looks almost as pale blue as 
our native Phlox Divaricata. It is a strong grower, flowers 
freely and should be planted with white or yellow flowers to 
look its best. Fairly tall grower. Three, $1.10; doz., $3.25; 
100, $22.50. 
Julea Sandeau. Rather dwarf in habit, but producing very large 
heads of brilliant watermelon-pink blossoms. An outstanding 
variety because it flowers more freely and longer than most 
Phlox, and is practically free from red spider. We consider 
it the best of its color. Three, $1.10; doz., $3.25; 100, $22.50. 
Iieo Schlageter, Seldom has one seen a shade of red such as is 
produced by this fine new Phlox. Its brilliant scarlet blooms 
seem to glow with fire. This impression is heightened by the 
fact that there seems to be a decided orange cast to the 
blooms. Of splendid habit, about 3 feet high with full rich 
heads of bloom early. The best red Phlox in existence today. 
Three, $1.50; doz., $4.50; 100, $35.00. 
Miss Iiingard. This variety is not a Decussata type like all the 
others in the list, but a Suffruticosa. The distinguishing 
marks are that it flowers a month earlier than the Decussata 
sorts. Has beautiful, long, shiny green foliage, and is abso¬ 
lutely free from any disease. It flowers from early June until 
October with large heads of white flowers with faint pink 
shadings in center. It is the best early white Phlox known. 
Three. $1.10; doz., $3.25; 100, $22.50. 
Mrs. Milly Van Hoboken. An excellent new variety. Very large 
florets combined in rather loose, large heads. Color bright

$22.50.
