Beautiful, fragrant Phlox, backbone of the summer garden 
MichelKs Superb New Hardy Phlox 
Augusta. Plant Patent No. 252. A strong¬ 
growing plant of medium height, about 2J^ 
feet when fully grown, with rich bronzy 
green foliage and stems. Color is best de¬ 
scribed as a brilliant cherry-red, intense 
and sparkling. The young florets on open¬ 
ing have a decided orange tint. Unlike 
most Phlox of this color it does not discolor 
or bleach in the sun, but the color remains 
perfect under all weather conditions. 
Leo_ Schlageter. Strong, healthy grower, 
with well-branched, pyramidal clusters of 
large, bright carmine-scarlet flowers, with 
slightly darker centers. 
P. D. Williams. Pyramidal trusses of enor¬ 
mous, soft apple-blossom-pink flowers, 
with darker centers. Grows compact and 
retains its color. 2J^ ft. 
Columbia. Plant Patent No. 118. Its color 
suggests a rich cameo-pink with faint blue 
eye. Blooms do not fade or lose any of 
their rich pink tone as the flower ages; 
out of the leaf-joints grow numerous 
laterals which continue the display. A 
well-grown two-year plant will produce 
from 6 to 15 flower-spikes, each about 2J^ 
feet high, stiff and erect. 
Salmon Glow. Lovely flame-pink with 
salmon shadings, softened with lilac and 
white tints in center, the effect as a whole 
being a rich salmon. Extremely free flow¬ 
ering and a strong grower, improving with 
age. A fine new Phlox.
