Full Sun Perennial

Phlox x paniculata Jeana is an exceptional garden phlox renowned for its impressive flower show, tall, sturdy habit, and pollinator-friendliness. The fragrant lavender-pink flowers are significantly smaller than typical garden phlox – only about half an inch wide – but the show at peak is eye-popping, nonetheless. In trials at Mt. Cuba Center in Delaware, the nectar-rich flowers of Jeana attracted more butterflies – Eastern Swallowtails were especially plentiful – than any other garden phlox in their study. We can see why it is the 2024 PPA Perennial Plant of the Year!
