TALL PHLOX PANICULATA STARFIRE
84569 Tall Phlox Paniculata Starfire
Phlox produces fragrant, bold-colored bunches of dense bloom clusters in shades of white, pink, purple, blue and reds. Phlox is a pollinator magnet for your summer garden. Pollinators are a vital part of life on planet Earth since they pollinate most flowering plants for them to reproduce. Pollinators do this by transferring pollen from bloom to bloom. Pollinators have been in decline in recent years due to habitat loss and disease.

About This Variety: Phlox Paniculata Starfire, an award winning variety,
produces cherry-red flowers atop dark reddish leaves. Tall Phlox, botanically
known as Phlox paniculata or commonly as garden phlox, is native to North
America. Phlox is a staple in the perennial garden as it mixes easily with
other plants and provides extended blooms throughout the summer.
Growing Instructions: Plant Phlox in the spring after all danger of frost has
passed in a full sun to partially shaded location in moist but well draining
soil. Soil preparation: The ideal soil is porous and drains well and yet
still holds enough water for the roots. If your soil is heavy clay and drains
slowly, or very sandy and does not hold water, add organic soil amendments
(peat moss or ground bark). Spread a 3-4” layer of soil amendment, add
fertilizer and incorporate together into the soil to a depth of 10”. To plant:
Dig a hole 1-2” deep in a partially sunny (at least 6 hours of direct sun),
well drained location. Place the phlox in hole with roots pointed down and
space 8-24” apart depending on variety. Cover with soil and water. Mulch in
extreme climates.
