For a brilliant, bold color effect in mass during the late summer and 
autumn, the Hardy Phlox (decussata types) are indispensable. Without 
them it would be difficult to maintain the display of color during July and 
August when sometimes there is little else in bloom in the perennial border.

DECUSSATA 
PHLOX ARENDSI HYBRIDS 
These are hybrids between P. canadensis and 
P. decussata. They flower early in spring and 
when cut back several times during the summer 
they will continue to bloom until fall. This 
‘“Everblooming Phlox’ is a worthy asset to any 
border, being very floriferous, and on account of 
its low height (about 1 foot) and spreading na- 
ture, it is very useful for edging herbaceous 
borders or in solid beds of one color, to create a 
magnificent mass effect. 
Charlotte. A very fine white, changing to lilac, 
%& having a dark lilac eye. 
% Hilda. A very good soft lilac. Pink eye. 
% Kathy. Purplish rose with a dark eye. 20 in. 
% Marianne. Dark bluish violet. 
All Phlox Arendsi Hybrids: 3 of one variety 
for $2.00; 6 of one variety for $3.50 
PHLOX 
in April, May and June may be considered a preview to the taller and more 
showy Phlox to come in later summer. 
Simple of culture, they require only a fairly rich soil and water. The 
removal of flower-heads after blooms are faded will encourage new flowers 
from side shoots to lengthen the blooming period.
