Phlox Opening Act White

Phlox 'Opening Act White' PP27461 CPBR5992………"Opening Act Series"

Common Name: Hybrid Phlox

Tall Garden Phlox are a mainstay in the midsummer sun garden, and this hybrid type will extend the color of Phlox by blooming even earlier; starting in early summer. The dark green, glossy foliage is mildew and disease resistant, an improvement on older varieties of Phlox that don’t hold up as well in the heat and humidity of summer. Plant these in an area with good air circulation and plenty of sunshine for the best performance. With a stoloniferous growth habit, this Phlox will spread slowly over the years.

'Opening Act White' boasts a long season of color in addition to being early blooming, with pure white flowers typically appearing from early summer well into midsummer, with some sporadic rebloom into early fall.

These perennials are a favorite of gardeners around the world and a staple of North American native gardens. Be sure to locate these plants in full sun for the best flowering performance and to help avoid powdery mildew concerns. A favorite of pollinators.
