Phlox drummondii ‘Cherry Caramel’
£3.00
Phlox drummondii grandiflora ‘Cherry Caramel’
One of my must have half hardies for cutting, an impressively long flowering period and the perfect partner to roses and then dahlias. Clusters of caramel flowers with dark cherry centres on branching, wiry stems. We grow all the Phlox drummondii varieties and this one is the winner for stem length and abundance of flower.
