Notes
'PHL090201' phlox (Phlox 'PHL090201') is a perennial for ground cover and naturalized areas. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Purple, fragrant flowers open in mid to late spring, and the plant tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Blanket flower, Hollyhock, and Queen of Night tulip.
