Just like the pink and orange hues that light up the sky during a sunset, 'Sunset Coral' lights up the landscape. The coral pink flowers have an orange tinge; the orange color is especially noticeable when compared with true pink Phlox paniculata varieties. This variety matches the height of the rest of the Luminary collection which have all been outstanding additions to the middle of the border. The Luminary collection has selected especially for their improved resistance to podery mildew, beautiful colours and incredible performance.
Phlox needs rich, well drained soil that does not dry out to look its best. It is a heavy feeder so a fall mulch with compost is beneficial to keep up the organic level in the soil. The varieties we sell have mildew resistant but do not overcrowd this plant. It needs good air circulation.
