Phlox
Chock-full of oomph and charisma, Phlox are enduring warm weather beacons, appreciating moist well-drained soil, frequent deadheading and deep basal waterings. Periodic thinning to just four or six stalks ensures healthier paniculata cultivars.
Named for the high-quality folkloric ceramics that originated in Gzhel, a Russian village near Moscow, the large, long-blooming rounded flower heads showcase similar colors above strong lanky stalks and dark green leaves. Vibrant blue-violet, lilac and porcelain-streaked petals swirl around a bright purple eye, their dreamy hues changing with the day’s weather. This coveted seldom-offered Phlox adds grace to cut creations, wafts a sweet scent plus musters a carefree cold-hardy temperament.
