ANNUAL PHLOX

coloring and variety of tones. Seed may be sown in the

appear in a few weeks. If faded flowers are removed they 
bloom until late frost.

1376—PERENNIAL 
PHLOX 
In the past this beauti¬ 
ful perennial has been 
difficult to grow from 
seed, and the plants were 
usually too expensive to 
permit everyone to have 
as many as every gar¬ 
den deserves. Now by 
freezing the seeds in the 
ice trays of a refrigerator 
for three days and letting 
them thaw out gradually, 
they will germinate in 
about five days and are 
as easy to start as sweet peas. Our seed is saved from 
selected plant varieties, giving you the best in colors and 
in large type flowers. Pkt., 10c; Va oz., 30c.
