Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A reliably clean-growing pure white phlox, blooming in late midseason. It spans the flowering gap between the other whites, the early 'Shorty White' and 'Midsummer White' and the late 'David', so if you would like a white garden, plant all four cultivars for three months of bloom. A heavy bloomer, with a light fragrance. Not troubled by mildew at all. Winner of an RHS Award of Garden Merit.
