Description
Phlox are showy and long-blooming. They grow best in rich, moist soil in full sun. They thrive with fertilizing every other month and consistent moisture levels. Requires good air circulation. Deadhead to encourage rebloom.
’Fashionably Early’ has pure white flowers with a faint light purple eye. Broad, dark green, thick foliage stays beautiful all season. This cultivar was selected for its exceptional mildew resistance, thick leathery leaves, and spreads by stolons. (A stolon is a segmented, horizontal stem which remains chiefly above ground.)
