Deserving a place in the garden, Phlox paniculata ‘Franz Schubert’ is a lovely herbaceous perennial with large, pyramidal clusters of soft lilac-tinged pink flowers. Blooming for weeks from mid-summer to early fall, the sweetly fragrant flowers are rich in nectar and visited by hummingbirds and butterflies. They are borne atop stiff, upright stems, clad with narrow lance-shaped leaves, and make excellent fresh-cut flowers. Healthy and mildew resistant, this cultivar gives color and fragrance to summer. Plant in drifts for great impact and make sure you have enough for the vase!
Phlox paniculata is a garden classic that is considered by many as the backbone of summer borders. The striking billowing masses of large, fragrant clusters of white, lavender, pink, rose, red, and bi-color, blossoms enliven native landscapes and grace gardens for weeks. Despite its well-known susceptibility to powdery mildew, Garden Phlox remains a perennial favorite prized for its dramatic, long-blooming floral show.
