Phlox paniculata ‘Ultraviolet’

Description

Common name: Garden Phlox, Tall Garden Phlox

LUMINARY™ Collection

The LUMINARY™ Collection is the gold standard of powdery mildew resistance. In extensive trial, this was the very best variety to display resistance to powdery mildew.  Very dark, magenta violet flower panicles are held above a full, bushy habit of bright green foliage. An improvement on the industry standard ‘Nicky’ with better resistance to powdery mildew.

Tall Garden Phlox are a favorite in the garden, but often are plagued by powdery mildew in hot, humid conditions. These new varieties are selected especially for their improved resistance over typical Phlox paniculata varieties.
