50 Seeds Cranberry & Cream Phlox (Phlox drummondii) Bicolor Fragrant Annual Flower
Introducing the Cranberry & Cream Phlox (Phlox drummondii) — a charming annual wildflower that produces clusters of bicolor blossoms in rich cranberry and soft cream tones. These delicate flowers bloom abundantly throughout the warm season and release a light, sweet fragrance that attracts pollinators to the garden. With its compact, bushy habit, this phlox is perfect for borders, containers, and cut flower arrangements.
This easy-to-grow annual thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. Use it to add a pop of color to flower beds, cottage gardens, or patio pots. Deadheading spent blooms encourages continuous flowering. As an ornamental plant, it also works well in naturalized meadow plantings. Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date or start indoors 6-8 weeks prior.
