Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Phlox 'Fashionably Early Crystal' is an upright hybrid phlox that blooms earlier than the tall garden phlox with a fantastic floral display and fragrance throughout the summer months with panicles of white flowers and a faint light purple eye. The foliage is broad, thick, dark and long lasting. Unlike the paniculatas, the Fashionably Early series have a stoloniferous habit 28-32 inches high spreading to 26-30 inches wide. Mildew resistant. Deadheading will prolong blooming season. Awesome in the mid to back of sunny borders, as mass planting and as cut flowers. A hummingbird magnet and pollinator friendly.
