Description
Phlox maculata 'Delta'
Height x Spread: 90cm x 60cm
Dense panicles of sweetly scented pure white flowers with a red eye burst onto the scene during the summer on upright stems, which are covered with linear green foliage.
The fragrant flowers make this Meadow Phlox the ideal choice for perfumed borders. It requires little maintenance throughout the season although the occasional thin layer of mulch in either spring or autumn will help maintain soil moisture and boost its fertility . Best planted towards the middle of your borders and flower beds. 'Delta' prefers a humus-rich soil in the sun or partial shade.
