1235—Gigantea New Art Shades.—This is a wonderful mixture 
of a new family of Phlox Drummondi. The plants grow from 
8 to 12 inches tall and are covered with unusually large blos- 
soms in a profusion of delicate colors. Like the other Phlox 
it will thrive in almost any sunny location but it has a longer 
blooming period and a wonderful color range in addition to the 
extra large blossoms.

seed where the plants are to remain. They cannot be trans- 
lanted. The perennial sorts should be sowed in the spring for 
the following year’s blooms.

SALVIA (HHO 2 to 3 ft.) 
The Salvias or Scarlet Sages rank as one of our most impor- 
tant bedding plants. They make excellent tall borders for 
eannas and other tall flowers and also do well when bedded. A 
bed of these flowers is a flame of color from midsummer until 
frost. For best results start the seed in hotbeds or in boxes 
indoors and transplant when warm weather comes. The Fari- 
nacea is a perennial variety but will bloom the first year from 
seed. .
