The large, fragrant Hydrangea-like flower clusters of Summer Phlox create a spectacular show in the summer border. This colourful selection has bright rose-pink flowers with a contrasting magenta eye. Boldly variegated leaves are splashed with green and deep golden-yellow, changing to butter yellow at blooming time. All varieties of Summer Phlox are superb for cutting, and may even attract passing butterflies. Remove faded flowers to encourage a second bloom. Water well during summer drought.
