. Hardy Phlox DREER'S "flATCHLESS DOZEN" HARDY PHLOX While we aim to grow only really worth while varieties of Hardy Phlox, quickly discarding those which fail to measure up to our ideals, it is true that some varieties are so conspicuously superior that they belong in a preferred class.

Hardy Phlox DREER'S "flATCHLESS DOZEN" HARDY PHLOX While we aim to grow only really worth while varieties of Hardy Phlox, quickly discarding those which fail to measure up to our ideals, it is true that some varieties are so conspicuously superior that they belong in a preferred class. The dozen sorts offered below are all eligible to this exclusive set, .they are mostly recent introductions from noted European specialists, and show great advances in color, some of the tones being quite new in Phloxes. B. Comte. Brilliant rich French purple. Elizabeth Campbell, Very bright salmon-pink, with lighter shadings and dark red eye; attracts more attention in our fields than any other variety; one of the handsomest. Europa. A white variety, with a decided crimson-carmine eye. The individual flowers and trusses are very large; en- tirely distinct; of sturdy, erect habit. Qefion. A new color in Phloxes, a tender peach-blossom pink with bright rose eye, flower and truss very large, on erect sturdy but compact stems. Minerva. A beautiful luminous violet rose, with white suffu- sion and a bright carmine eye, flowers and trusses of largest size. Mrs. Jenkins. The best all round pure white. Rheinlander. A most beautiful salmon-pink with flowers and trusses of immense size. The color of the flower is intensified by a very decided deep claret-red eye. Rivertoa Jewel.

A great improvement on the popular variety Pantheon; of the same carmine rose color as the Paul Neyron Rose. Thor. A most beautiful and lively shade of deep salmon-pink, suffused and overlaid with a scarlet glow. A light, almost white halo surrounds the aniline red eye. This lovely variety holds the same place among the deep salmon pinks that the popular Elizabeth Campbell holds among the light salmon- pink sorts. Viking. A splend
