Phlox flowers bring a burst of color and fragrance to gardens. These charming blooms, often clustered in showy heads, come in a delightful array of hues, including pinks, purples, whites, reds, and even bicolors. Their five delicate, petal-like lobes create a star-like or salverform (tubular with a flat, spreading limb) appearance. Many varieties release a sweet, often powdery or honey-like scent, attracting butterflies and other pollinators. Phlox plants range in height from low-growing groundcovers to taller, upright forms, making them versatile additions to borders, containers, and cottage gardens, providing long-lasting summer color.
