Phlox maculata ‘Natascha’
Meadow Phlox |
USDA Zone: 3-9 |
Plant number: 1.415.780
The Meadow Phlox are vigorous, healthy plants with excellent resistance to powdery mildew, which often infects the more common Summer Phlox. This unique selection has unusual pink and white candy-striped flowers, and a compact habit. Excellent for cutting. Remove faded flowers to encourage repeat blooming in late summer. Moist, rich soil is the best choice for all of the taller, summer flowering Phlox. Clumps are easily divided in early spring. Attractive to both butterflies and hummingbirds.
