Plant Details:
Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Polemoniaceae
Plant Description: Cotton Candy Garden Phlox brings months of color, with delicate, light pink petals surrounding dark centers that bloom from early summer to fall. These wonderfully scented clumps of flowers will bring light and color to any planting bed or border, and the long bloom period is excellent for the many pollinators that frequent this plant.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
