Tightly packed clusters of bluish-mauve flowers, each with a soft-white star-shaped center. Prune back a third in early spring for a bushier plant with many heads. For large flowerheads prune all but a few large stems on each plant. Also does well in some shade. Garden phlox is a staple of the perennial border. Phlox "paniculata" have large fragrant flowers in large, dense pyramidal clusters. Provides unsurpassed flowering in summer, clear crisp colors and flowers in profusion. Phlox are showy, clump-forming perennials that are easy to grow and look spectacular in borders or mass plantings. Best grown in well-drained soil. Mixes well with other perennials and provides long summer bloom.
