AQUILEGIA 
or Columbine 
The Aquilegias or Columbines are among the 
most elegant of the hardy perennial plants. They 
do well in full sun, but are best suited to semi- 
shady locations. They are the most commonly 
used in the long-spurred mixtures which cover a 
wide range of soft, delicate, distinct shades.

Phlox Subulata 
et The perennials we list may be planted in to 
the spring and also in the fall. 
PHLOX SUBULATA 
(Moss or Creeping Phlox) 
These dwarf creeping Phlox are some of the first 
flowers to brighten the landscape in the spring. Because 
of their low growth, spreading habit, and vivid colors, 
they are especially fine for rock gardens, for terrace 
plantings, and for planting about the base of the stone 
in cemetery work. Height 4 to 6 inches, 
They are a little bothersome to plant because of a 
big spreading top with a very small amount of root. In 
planting it is well to force some of the top into the hole 
with the roots and bring the dirt up well about this part 
of the top. Water well in planting and then keep the 
soil well stirred for several weeks. Plant 8 inches apart 
in full sun and divide every three or four years. 
We offer these plants in four distinct shades: Red, 
blue, light apple-blossom-pink, and deep pink.

1 each of all 4 shades for $1.65
