Garden Phlox 'Sweet Summer Salmon Orange'
Phlox paniculata 'Sweet Summer Salmon Orange'
1 gallon pot
 
A fantastic new series that has it all, this upright, late-flowering variety has big clusters of large, fragrant, bicolor salmon-tinged pink and white flowers on robust, disease resistant foliage that looks great even when not in bloom. Plant en masse to create a stunning border, or fill a patio container for vivid summer color. A huge draw for both butterflies and hummingbirds!
