Description
Phlox paniculata 'White Eye Flame' is a recent cultivar of Phlox paniculata. The particular compact habit makes it stand out. It forms a very dense plant, producing an abundance of flowers with white petals, arranged in a star shape around a vibrant magenta pink neck. They stand out well against the beautiful dark green, glossy and healthy foliage. The plant is adorned with large fragrant clusters throughout the summer in moist and fertile soil. This small phlox is an accommodating perennial, resistant to diseases. It is easy to grow and particularly suitable for borders, adding beauty to the front of flower beds as well as containers.
Phlox paniculata 'White Eye Flame' belongs to the family Polemoniaceae. It is a low-growing perennial herbaceous plant, with a woody stump, forming a dense and compact clump of leafy stems not exceeding 45 cm (18in) in height and 30 cm (12in) in width. The stiff and sturdy stems are covered with single, ovate and lanceolate leaves of a dark green, glossy appearance. Flowering begins in mid-July, at the height of summer, and continues until September, provided faded inflorescences are removed. The small flowers, measuring 1.5 to 2.5 cm (1in) in diameter, have a tubular corolla of a white colour with a magenta pink throat that is visible from afar. They are grouped at the tips of the erect, dense and round panicles measuring 15 cm (6in) in diameter, which are pleasantly fragrant. The flowering is attractive to bees and provides nectar. Under good growing conditions, phlox establish themselves very well in the garden.
Phlox paniculata are popular perennial plants in ornamental gardens, as their legendary simplicity and generosity are almost unmatched in perennial beds. They combine well with 'Mohawk' Monardas or 'Wirral Supreme' Daisies. 'White Eye Flame' Phlox can be paired with dwarf asters (Aster dumosus), intense blue buglosses, or white flowers of miniature roses, creating a very elegant ensemble. Dwarf phlox make good companions for ageratums, peonies, and daisies, all of which are very easy to grow. This small variety is a top-notch perennial for brightening up flower pots that adorn balconies and patios.

Planting and care
Phlox paniculata are easy to grow. Phlox 'White Eye Flame' will prefer a damp and rich soil, even clay which is well-drained. It needs sun to flower well. Planted in the sun in a climate with hot summers, it will require regular watering and mulching at the base. Pruning the faded inflorescences promotes a second flowering at the end of the season. Protect young plants from slugs, which are fond of their tender shoots.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
