No garden is complete without perennial Phlox. The color range is so large, the colors so bright, and the 
period of blooming so long that every garden should contain a good planting. 
Plants begin to bloom in late June, and with proper treatment, continuous bloom may be expected until 
frost comes. 
Water heavily during dry spells. The flowers should not be allowed to go to seed. Cut the first flower 
spikes when they are in full bloom and use for home decoration. Or, if left longer on the plant, they should 
be cut as soon as the blooms fade. In this way a second setting of bloom will come on and thus the season 
will be prolonged. 
This plant likes a well enriched soil and a sunny, well drained location. Fall planting can be made from the 
first of September until the ground freezes. Phlox can also be planted in the spring. 
Plant so that the crown is just beneath the surface and use plenty of water when planting if the ground is 
at all dry. If the soil is dry as winter approaches, stir the ground well about the plants and cover with a good 
mulch. 
Our list of standard Phlox is made up of sorts we have tested for many years and have chosen the very best 
of the larger number of older varieties that are offered for sale.

AFRICA. Brilliant carmine-red with deep blood-red eye. The large, 
nicely formed florets are gathered into a large shapely truss of intense 
richness. 
APOLLO. A tall, sturdy growing Phlox in a soft shade of rich red, 
covered with a bright scarlet sheen. 
CHAMPS ELYSEE. A very pleasing deep velvety purple, so deep as to 
have a blue effect. 
CHIEFTAIN. The color is deep red without violet or purple shadings 
and holds its color under adverse weather conditions. A strong 
grower of medium height. 
B. COMTE. One of the richest of all dark colored Phlox. A rich 
satiny deep red-purple. Hard to find anything better in its color. 
COUNT ZEPPELIN. A tall, nicely formed plant. Large, white with a 
vermilion-red eye. A very neat clean looking variety. Very different 
from Bridesmaid in appearance. 
R. P. Struthers Improved 
DAILY SKETCH. It is the most distinct new Phlox we have seen in 
many years. The plant is tall, the individual flower very large. The 
color is a light salmon-pink with a very large and very noticeable 
carmine eye. Surely an outstanding new variety. 
DR. CHAS. MAYO. Another Phlox somewhat similar to Count Zeppe¬ 
lin and yet entirely distinct. A very strong grower. One of the late 
W. E. Fryer’s best Phlox. 
ETHEL PRITCHARD. A French mauve in color. If seen on a cloudy 
day it looks like our native blue Phlox. 
FEUERBRAND. A splendid red Phlox. Good plant and a very profuse 
bloomer. Very bright dark red-crimson. One of the most brilliant 
of all reds. 
\ 
HAUPTMANN KOEHL. Dark blood-red. Very large clusters on strong, 
tall stems. Florets very large. Keeps its color long in heat, winds and 
rain. 
H. O. WIJERS. A pure glistening white with large trusses made up of 
large florets with a distinct bright red eye. 
INNOCENCE. A pure glistening white. A strong, robust growing va¬ 
riety and a profuse bloomer. 
JULES SANDEAU. A Phlox of dwarf habit which produces blooms of 
the largest size in a beautiful clear, medium pink. A Phlox that is 
unusually free from disease and in constant bloom all season.
