Spectacular and long blooming. Excellent planted with spring-flowering bulbs, at water's edge, and in combination with rudbeckia, Russian sage and tall sedum. Attractive fall color and winter effect. Plumes are valued in flower arrangements.

Produces clusters of brilliantly colored flowers. Attracts hummingbirds to gardens or containers. Phlox make good cut flowers. Remove spent blooms to promote additional blooms and extend the blooming period.

Profuse flowers on evergreen foliage are lovely cascading over stones, planted at garden's edge, or along walkways. Blooms attract butterflies. Makes a striking companion to spring-blooming perennials and bulbs. Shear after blooming for best appearance.
