Proven performer produces big, fragrant blooms. Extremely tolerant of powdery mildew. Phlox Flame will bloom naturally as days lengthen and temperatures begin to rise in late Spring." from Ball Horticultural Company, who also have these other cultivars of Phlox paniculata - " “The Gardens at Ball are an exciting forum for sharing ideas on plants and planting with the thousands of growers, retailers, landscapers, garden writers and consumers who visit each year. There is a place for every kind of plant in today’s gardening world, and that’s just what you’ll be seeing.” Anna Ball, President & CEO Ball Horticultural Company" "This outstanding dwarf selection is one of the shortest yet introduced.

The large clusters of fragrant flowers have soft-pink petals with a rose eye, starting in midsummer. Remove faded blooms to encourage more buds. Attractive to butterflies. Reported to have good resistance to powdery mildew. " from Heritage Perennials, who also sell other cultivars of Phlox.

Individual flowers are densely arranged in large, terminal, pyramidal clusters (panicles to 6" long) atop stiff, upright stems which seldom need staking. Long mid to late summer bloom sometimes extends into early fall. Narrow, opposite, pointed, lance-shaped leaves (to 5" long). Good fresh cut flower. " from Missouri Botanical Garden.
