Phlox paniculata 'Jeana' is a gorgeous herbaceous perennial with enormous, tiered clusters of tiny, lavender-pink flowers that is renowned for having exceptional resistance to powdery mildew. The fragrant blooms, which bloom for weeks from mid-summer to early fall, are rich in nectar and are frequented by hummingbirds and butterflies. They are carried on stiff, tall stems that are covered in deep green, lance-shaped leaves. Even in the warmest and most humid summers, this endearing and distinctive garden phlox is absolutely free of powdery mildew. For maximum impact, plant in drifts, and make sure you have enough for the vase!
