HARDY PHLOX 
BEST OF AMERICA’S FAVORITE VARIETIES; 
COLORFUL NEW INTRODUCTIONS 
— WILL BLOOM NEXT SUMMER — 
No flower will lend more color and beauty to your 
garden than a mass planting of Hardy Phlox. They 
thrive under average conditions, bloom freely over a long 
period of time, and are equally satisfactory when used 
in beds or borders. | 7 
We are growers of Phlox and have an unusually fine 
assortment of field grown plants. These are one-year 
plants, the best size for transplanting. All are well 
rooted and have bloomed in our fields, so we know they 
are all true to name. Phlox will start blooming early in 
July and continue through August into September.
