• This red phlox grows as a 12 inch annual across the country in USDA zones 3 - 10.
• This variety, Phlox drummondii nana compacta ‘Beauty Scarlet’, has brilliant rosy-red bloom clusters. Phlox is a compact, low-growing plant that has clusters of 5-petaled, brilliant colored blooms. Mix them with other flowers to create a charming cottage look.
• They are known to reseed themselves easily.
• Sow 3 to 4 seeds per plant or 4 ounces per 1,000 square feet. Start the seed outdoors in spring after frost danger has passed, or for earlier blooms, start the seed indoors 4 – 6 weeks before setting out. Cover the seed lightly and keep it moist. With temperatures between 60 – 70F, germination is usually within 30 days. Space the plants 9 - 12 inches apart.
