HARDY PHLOX 
If you want to add zest to your summer gardens, plant 
Phlox and plenty of them. Their brilliancy of color and 
long season of flower make them one of the most desir- 
able of Perennials. 
+“Chesapeake”—An outstanding semi-dwarf Phlox not over 
15 inches in height with large symmetrical trusses of flowers 
in a glorious shade of Tyrian Rose with a silvery white re- 
verse On the underside of the petals. The individual florets on 
this most attractive Novelty are 1% inches in diameter and 
are exceptionally long lasting on the plant. 
+Commander Koehl—Dark blood-red. Large clusters of strong, 
tall stems. Individual flowers large, keeping their color in 
heat and rain. Flowering July and August, 212 feet high. 
+Flash—One of the newer introductions. Fine brilliant crimson.

hances its beauty to a great extent. 3 feet.

Good grower with clean foliage flowering August and Sep- 
tember. 2% to 3 feet high. 
+Meis Copijn—Pure clear pink Phlox with carmine eye that 
produces massive trusses of flowers throughout the Summer 
season. This particular variety has an excellent erect habit 
of growth and will be a delightful asset to any garden where 
it can be grown in clumps of two and three plants to make a 
very splashing effect on the landscape. This is a variety we 
can heartily recommend. August-September. 
+Miss Lingard—This is known as the early flowering Phlox, 
since it comes into flower in May and continues to flower 
continuously until October, or the very heavy frosts injure it. 
Height, about 2 feet. Color, pure white. In early part of sea- 
son will show a pink ring in the center which gradually fades 
out later in the season to a pure white variety. 
+Spitfire—The nearest orange Phlox on the market today. The 
large flowers are sparkling and vibrant and have good carry- 
ing qualities. The plant is robust, medium-tall and blooms 
mid-season to late. 
+Progress—The individual flower is lavender suffused on the 
white petals with a pronounced purple eye. Mass planting 
produces a soft lavender effect. 2% to 3 feet. 
+Purple Heart—A lively shade of deep blue purple intensified 
with a darker center. Large individual florets produced in 
massive trusses. A vigorous healthy grower and a decided 
asset to your Phlox plantings. 
+Salmon Beauty—A rich salmon pink with large contrasting 
white eye. Very soft in tone but positive in effect. The indi- 
vidual flowers are 11% to 2 inches across and the plants attain 
a height of about 30 inches.

tened with lilac and white tints at the center, the effect as a 
whole being a rich salmon. This new variety is extremely 
free flowering. July, throughout the season, 2 to 3 feet high.

tively arranged to form a huge cap of snowy white. Strong 
stem, medium to tall, outstanding for size and excellent 
form. Foliage disease resistant.

what lighter in mass effect than General Chanzy. Has un- 
usual gardenesque value.

NEW ENGLISH PHLOX 
+Sir John Falstaff 
Here is a giant among Phlox and unquestion- 
ably the most outstanding variety we have ever 
seen. Indeed it is so far in advance of all others 
that we confidently predict it will retain the 
lead for a very long time to come. 
The color is a rich luminous salmon pink, 
one of the loveliest colors in the floral pageant 
of summer. The flowers are about 17% inches 
in diameter. The flower truss is truly massive— 
there is no other Phlox comparable in size to 
these majestic bouquet-like heads of bloom. 
Sir John Falstaff has a first class habit and a 
constitution as befits the name—robust, vigor- 
ous, with sturdy stems and bold substantial 
foliage. And as to growth—it is one of the 
most accommodating we know. Height 24 to 
36 inches depending on soil conditions. Plants 
will be supplied out of pots. 
Price: $1.00 per plant, $10.00 per dozen.

to a height of 10 to 12 inches; unsurpassed as a border plant

April and May and continues flowering until early July. 
No other garden flower blooming at this season shows this 
rare and beautiful color. 
*Divaricata Alba—The white form of the Phlox Divaricata. 
An exact duplicate of the blue variety in every way except 
that the flowers are pure white.
