‘Jeana’ Garden Phlox – Phlox paniculata Outlet

Think you’ve seen and grown it all when it comes to summer-blooming phlox? Then wait til you meet ‘Jeana’! It combines the easy-to-grow, long blooming traits you love with an almost supernatural ability to attract butterflies. The Perennial Plant Association even named Phlox paniculata ‘Jeana’ as the 2024 perennial of the year.
