    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Big florets of coral-rose, with a large cherry-red eye, the petal edges have bit of a curl to them, giving the flowers a slightly scalloped look. A 1959 Wayside Gardens catalog describes this British cultivar as ?Rich luscious salmon-pink?the most outstanding variety we have ever seen?and?no other phlox comparable in size to the heads of bloom.?
