Purple Kiss Summer Phlox -(Plant/ Root)

Juicy, grape-purple flowers with a charming white eye. The same hydrangea-like masses of brightly coloured flowers, dark-green, sturdy foliage and sweet fragrance of regular garden Phlox, but on a compact and low-growing plant. Perfect for the front of the mixed perennial border, in containers and along pathways.

 Dwarf, dark green-leafed Phlox has intense, deep purple petals and a pure white eye.

Summer Phlox is very popular for its midsummer display in the border. This compact selection produces large clusters of fragrant flowers with deep magenta-purple overlapping petals surrounding a tiny, white eye. The dwarf habit makes this suitable for the front of the border or in containers. Happiest in a sunny location. Good mildew resistance although all Summer Phlox benefit from a location that provides good air circulation and consistent moisture. Remove faded flowers to encourage more buds to form.
