I am crazy about the new breeding programme producing one after another of these incredibly long-flowering, sweet and delicate Phlox drummondiis, brilliant as pot fillers and cut flowers. First came Crme Brle’, then Cherry Caramel and now, the perfectly pretty, Blushing Bride. They have delicate stems so need support and planting tightly to self-support, but then they just get on with it, right into late autumn.
