Phlox (Tall Garden Phlox)
Color Name: Volcano Medley
-Masses of deliciously fragrant, multicolored flowers
-Compact and low-growing with sturdy stems
-Flowers from June through September
-Ideal in garden beds, borders and containers
-Superior disease tolerance
Volcano Medley Mix will bring months of brilliant color and delicious fragrance to the summer garden. It is the perfect plant for grouping in the middle of any sunny garden or patio! This phlox boasts multicolored flowers that have an electric effect in the garden. Volcano Medley offers a neat compact growth habit, fragrance, long bloom and extreme tolerance for the powdery mildew that plagues most phlox. Because it's lower growing and compact, it won't flop when in bloom or after it rains, meaning it is a low maintenance star. Plant Volcano Medley in full sun to partial shade in fairly fertile, moist, well-drained soil, then stand back and enjoy the show.
Growing Tips: Phlox is unequaled for its showy blooms over a long period in summer. Though it is one of the most popular perennials available, it does require some maintenance to sustain its health and vigor.
Phlox grows best in rich, moist soil in full sun. It will thrive with bi-monthly fertilizing and consistent moisture levels. Deadheading will prolong bloom time and prevent self-seeding.
