Phlox paniculata – Stars and Stripes Garden Phlox
SKU: n/a.$16.99
Experience the thrill of bursting fireworks with Stars and Stripes Phlox, Phlox paniculata. In summer, the plump flower heads are loaded with pink flowers with star-spangled red centers. The plant’s fragrant flowers attract hummingbirds and butterflies and make excellent cut flowers. It grows 32″ tall.
Tall Phlox makes a charming addition to cottage and perennial gardens. Use in cutting gardens, butterfly and pollinator gardens, meadows, and naturalized gardens.
Plant in full sun to part shade. Add organic matter to the soil. The plant benefits from fertilizer. Although tolerant of drought, it prefers moist soil throughout the season. For best bloom, keep the soil consistently moist when the plant is setting buds and flowering. If you want an extra big show, use liquid fertilizers just before the plant begins to show flower buds around early summer.
