The Garden Phlox Mix is a classic, high-performing perennial, celebrated for its vibrant hues, lovely fragrance, and ability to attract pollinators. This clump-forming, erect herbaceous plant grows 2 to 4 feet tall, producing dense clusters of five-petaled flowers in a variety of bold colors from mid-summer to mid-fall. Its low to mid-height blooms make it perfect for bouquets, borders, and bird gardens, where it draws in hummingbirds and butterflies with its irresistible nectar.
