    PHLOX

    Commonly known as Border phlox

    All Flower AUG-OCT

    A classic border plant, floriferous, insect-friendly, good for cut flowers and adding a freshness to the August flower border.

    Genus of 90 species of evergreen or herbaceous perennials, annuals and shrubs found mostly in North America though one, P. sibirica, is from northern Asia.
