Description

The Phlox maculata 'Natasha' is a perennial with numerous large fragrant lilac-pink flowers bordered with white, which give it a charming "Vichy" style. It blooms in July and August, and the flowers are carried by sturdy stems adorned with deciduous leaves.

With very good hardiness, Phlox maculata is native to the eastern United States. At maturity, it can reach a height of 90 cm (35in).

Grow this phlox en masse or in a border. Its flowers are used in the making of two-tone bouquets in white and pink. Like the Phlox paniculata type, it takes longer to establish itself than the latter.
