PHLOX DECUSSATA 
Phloxes are always an important feature of old-fashioned gardens, and they're 
equally indispensable now. No other perennial is quite so valuable for mid-summer 
flower masses, and the plants thrive equally in full sun or half shade. They like rich 
soil. If possible, plant at least a half a dozen of one sort, for massing is essential to 
get the finest effect. Most of them are pleasingly fragrant.

ly pink flowers in great profusion. Varies 
in height from 3 to 6 inches. l5c.

ers entirely cover plant in late spring.

Appreciates 
PHLOX SUBULATA, "Moss Pink.” A trail- 
ing plant which soon forms a mat of 
bright green, changing to a solid rug 
of color when in flower. Lilac—especial- 
ly good. 10c. Pink, 10c. White, 30c. 
PHLOX SUBULATA, ‘Vivid. (R). Brilliant 
rose pink, blooms several weeks later 
than others. Does not spread. Extra 
choice. 25c. 
PHLOX SUBULATA, “Fairy.” (R). Each deli- 
cate flower is pale blue with dark pur- 
ple eye. Desirable both for this un- 
usual coloring and the very compact 
growth of the plant. A fine companion 
for Phlox Vivid. 15c. 
PHYSOSTEGIA. Like a huge heather. 
Blooms in mid-summer and is valuable 
for cutting. 3 feet. Two sorts, soft laven- 
der, pink. 10c. 
PHYSOSTEGIA VIRGINICA, "Vivid." Deep 
rose colored spikes which appear in 
late summer when the perennial border 
is very bare. Looks well for six weeks. 
Splendid cutting material. An excellent 
harmony with Japanese anemone, 
“Queen Charlotte.” 15c. 
PHYTEUMA WAGNERI, (R). Fine heads 
of blue flowers. Sun and gritty soil suit 
Phyteumas. Another rare plant. 35c 
PLUMBAGO LARPENTAE (Syn-Ceratostig- 
ma Plumbaginoides), (R). Said to have 
been discovered on the walls of Pekin, 
this Chinese plant is invaluable in the 
rock garden, as it introduces a note of 
intense blue in the fall, when that 
color is scarce indeed. Fine autumn 
folidgem 256.
