Hardy Tall Phlox David
Hardy Tall Phlox David
David Phlox's huge, pure white flowers are a beautiful addition to the garden or cut-flower displays. It blooms for months--from June to September. Growing 30" tall, Garden Phlox or "Flame Flowers," bloom in profusion with huge, 5-6" flower heads that attract pollinators. The fragrant and showy flowers are an excellent addition to perennial borders, corners, containers and fresh flower arrangements.

Great addition
As an owner of a retail nursery here in Oregon, I would definitely recommend K.Van. K.Van is my "go-to" supplier for viable and healthy plants with a high rate of germination and yield rate. I've ordered from them for the past 5 years and will continue to do so.
only one grew....barely
planted these, in a greenhouse, controlled environment , all were dead but one we'll see if that one can grow
First time to order.
Verified Buyer
They shipped order as stated when order was placed. Just planted them so may take years to see the beautiful white flowers .
Cant wait for summer!
Verified Buyer
Thank you for sending it with care. We planted the phlox when they arrived and can't wait to see the surprise this summer. Cant believe the huge variety you offer.
A flower garden beauty!
The plants are as described and better! Pure white flowers that were hardy and bloomed all summer.
I will definitely buy these again
I put these in the ground and they are already several inches taller and growing so beautiful. The phloxes I ordered last fall were terrible. None grew. Now I can see why. They look nothing like the ones my wife just ordered this spring. I will post pictures when they start blooming but I'm positive they all will bloom
Great value
Was very happy about the size of the roots received.
