Fall Phlox

Bring sweet fragrance and vibrant summer color to your garden with Fall Phlox.

Fall Phlox is an upright perennial herb that forms neat clumps in classic garden borders. Growing up to 1.2 meters tall, it features narrow, lance-shaped leaves and sturdy stems. It fits naturally alongside sun-loving companions like coneflowers, black-eyed Susans, and daylilies.

This plant grows at a moderate rate and thrives in full sun to partial shade with regular, moderate watering. It is not drought tolerant, so you will need to keep the soil consistently moist. You can easily start new plants using seeds, stem cuttings, or root division.

The large clusters of summer flowers produce a rich nectar that fills the garden with scent. These bright blooms regularly draw bees and butterflies to your yard. Best of all, the blossoms are completely edible and safe to grow around humans and pets.
