Enjoy the beauty of tall garden phlox up to three weeks earlier with Fashionably Early Flamingo Phlox. This native cultivar features fragrant orchid-purple flower clusters that attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, and look beautiful in cut flower bouquets. Attractive deep green upright foliage is mildew resistant.
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
Fashionably Early Flamingo Phlox (PP29,911) is a native cultivar from the celebrated 'Fashionably Early' series. This Phlox blooms weeks earlier than standard tall garden phlox, meaning greater staying power for those flowers, which will avoid the intense heat of peak summer. In addition, the strong green foliage is very attractive in the garden and has exceptional mildew resistance. A light trimming and deadheading after first bloom will help with airflow, keep it looking tidy, and encourage second blooming early on. Position in the center of sunny garden beds in moisture retentive garden soils for best blooming. Plant with Echinacea, Hydrangeas, and Black Eyed Susans, and Bee Balm for a beautiful cottage garden feel.
