Phlox paniculata ‘Pina Colada’


Summer Phlox

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.415.820


Summer Phlox is very popular for its midsummer display in the border. This compact selection produces large clusters of fragrant flowers, the snow-white petals overlapping for a very full appearance. Remove faded flowers to encourage more buds to form. The dwarf habit makes this suitable for the border front or in containers. Happiest in a sunny location. Good mildew resistance although all Summer Phlox benefit from a location that provides good air circulation and consistent moisture. Attractive to butterflies. From plant breeder Jan Verschoor of the Netherlands. USPP#19968: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
