Description
The Fashionably Early series of Hybrid Phlox redefines the typical bloom schedule of Tall Garden Phlox (P. paniculata) by offering an earlier flowering period, often kicking off 2-3 weeks ahead of traditional varieties. These unique plants boast exceptional resistance to mildew, along with robust, leathery leaves, and a spreading growth habit, setting them apart from the more compact P. paniculata types.
Among this early-blooming lineup, 'Fashionably Early Crystal' emerges as a standout, particularly suited for the mid to back sections of garden borders. Its tall stature is matched by an extended bloom season, ensuring continuous flowering from early summer through midsummer, with occasional reblooms in the fall.
The pristine white flowers, adorned with a delicate light purple eye, lend an air of sophistication to any garden setting. Furthermore, its broad, dark green foliage remains attractive throughout the growing season, adding to its overall allure in the landscape.
