“A garden without phlox is not only a sheer mistake but a sin against summer.” plant breeder Karl Foerster.

Zones 4-8
Phlox is a long-lived perennial, often lasting in the garden for decades under hospitable growing conditions. Attracts bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds (although cons include susceptible to damage caused by powdery mildew and may be grazed by deer and rabbits.)
.
Garden phlox is also one of those rare perennials that you’ll find in nearly every hue on the color wheel, even hard-to-find shades of blue, like this P. paniculata ‘Blue Paradise’ photo by Andrew Pustiakin.
