Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Flowers are white with a tiny pink eye. Like the other maculata Phlox, ‘Reine du Jour’ has a considerably more delicate appearance compared to paniculata Phlox, due to narrower leaves, smaller flowers and a shorter habit. The flowering heads are tall and narrow, and crowded with blossoms from early/mid July to mid-August. A vigorous and strong cultivar, which increases well, and has excellent resistance to mildew. Very similar to Phlox 'Omega'.
