Phlox paniculata David

Phlox

Chockfull of oomph and charisma wherever they reside, even in a bouquet, these floriferous Phlox are enduring warm weather beacons, appreciating moist but well drained soil, deadheading, deep basal waterings and thinning to just four or six stalks.

Our two offerings are renowned not only for their lavish floral pageantry, but their unwavering mildew resistance as well.

Phlox paniculata ‘David’ full sun

Back in 1987, F. M. Mooberry of The Brandywine Conservancy had the keen eye to spot this outstanding, chance P. paniculata seedling and named it after her husband.

A quintessential summertime border plant, ‘David’ is highly prized for his lustrous greenery and huge, long blooming fragrant flowers. Shapely triangular trusses illuminated in classic white stand some 6 to 9 in. tall, and nearly as wide, on erect stems with narrow, dark green bristle-edged leaves that are arranged in pairs.

Blooms July–September.

Size: 3-1/2'–4' high x 3' wide; hardy to zone 4.

AVAILABLE EARLY SPRING 2012
