Notes

'Red Glory' phlox (Phlox 'Red Glory') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Its fragrant blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It is also drought tolerant once settled in.

Pairs well with Eastern columbine, Indian grass, and Nodding onion.
