The word ‘phlox’ means flame and Phlox ‘Lord Clayton’ turns up the heat with deep scarlet-red blooms and a delightful fragrance. Striking eggplant purple leaves with lime green veins gradually turn to a greenish-purple as the plant matures, creating the perfect complement for the eye-popping blooms. Mildew resistant too! (Phlox paniculata ‘Lord Clayton’ USPP22,960)
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).
24-36" x 12-18" wide. Heat up your mid-to-late summer garden with Phlox ‘Lord Clayton’s’ deep scarlet-red blooms, and purple-green leaves with lime green veining. It’s a garden sensation that will amaze friends and neighbors. Plant in full sun in compost-enriched garden soil and allow for good air circulation. A great addition to a butterfly or habitat garden, its purple foliage lights up ornamental grasses and other summer bloomers. ‘Lord Clayton USPP22,960’ will reward you with non-stop fragrant blooms from late June-August. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms. Butterflies love them and they make great cut flowers too. This selection is resistant to powdery mildew.
