'Salmon Glory' phlox (Phlox 'Salmon Glory') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. 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. It bears fragrant flowers that draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It is also drought tolerant. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.
