Product Description

Prismatic Pink Phlox is a native compact perennial with a bushy habit and sturdy stems covered with dark green lance-shaped foliage.  Fragrant panicles of deep coral pink flowers with an orange tint bloom from mid to late summer.  Best flowering in full sun and rich, moist, well-drained soils.  The Luminary series has improved disease resistance.

Phlox paniculata provides nectar to butterflies, skippers, Sphinx and Hummingbird moths, and hummingbirds.  

MAINTENANCE NEEDS:  Medium Maintenance.  Water regularly, but do not water from overhead or overcrowd plants to avoid powdery mildew.  Cut to ground and clean garden area in winter helps prevent mildew infection in next growing season.  Spider mites can be a problem in hot and dry climates. Taller stems may need staking. Deadheading prolongs bloom.
