. [Catalogue of] Cottage Rose Garden, 1889. Nursery stock Ohio Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs. NEW FRENCH PERENNIAL PHLOXES, These hardy Phloxes are one of the most .«;atisfactory plants for the garden and of the easiest possible culture, perfectly hardy, they come up year after year every spring and bloom for months. Although ihey succeed without hardly any care, rich soil and good culture will tell by a greater number and much larger trusses, each truss forming a perfect pyramidal bouquet by itself, and a wel grown three-yeai-old plant will form a mass of flowers too large for one person to span with two arms. The improvement made in this beautiful class of plants is peihaps more marked than in any other section of the hardy herbaceous family. The new French varieties all carry very fine, distinct, pure colors, in great trusses, many of them beautifully shaded and marked, with very distinct, clear, light eyes, and instead of the thin flowers, which were limited to lilac and white colors, we now have gorgeous flowers, combining all the diflerent tints of rose, carmine, red and purple, to s^y nothing of the pure whites and salmons with their distinct eyes. We have an exceedingly choice collection of this fine garden favorite. Price, 10 cents each; 3 distinct varieties for 25 cents; 15 for $ Few plants give better satisfaction ihan'the Primrose.
