Product Description
Phlox 'Minnie Pearl'
a/k/a garden Phlox, summer Phlox, perennial Phlox, or autumn Phlox
Zone 3 to 8.
Full sun to partial shade.
Plants reach 15 to 20 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide,
dwarf (?), upright, clump-forming.
Clusters of large, pure white flowers completely cover the glossy, green foliage from early to late summer. In warmer zones, may bloom in April, long before the paniculatas. The relatively short plants spread slowly to form a 2 foot wide clump in about 3 years.
'Minnie Pearl' was discovered growing along the roadside in Mississippi. Thought to be a naturally occurring hybrid of P. maculata x P. glaberrima, though it has an upright habit like paniculatas, 'Minnie Pearl' has almost unbelievable disease resistance.
