Phlox 
Phlox give brilliant summer effects, brightening the garden 
just after the spring flowers are gone and before summer flowers 
arrive in abundance. Large heads of 5-petaled, delightfuly fra- 
grant flowers on stems 1% to 3 ft. high. Use Miss Lingard for 
late May and early June, and other varieties will continue the 
display through the first half of July. Cut the flowers as they 
fade and they give a second, sometimes a third crop. Masses of 
six or more of each color produce imposing effects. Plant 12 
to 15 in. apart, 8 to 12 in if in a single row, in rich, rather 
moist soil, deeply prepared. Do not allow seedlings to crowd out 
the original plants.
