Description / Phlox 'Olympus'
Phlox 'Olympus' stands out as a unique tall garden phlox, reaching 18 to 36 inches tall with a slightly smaller spread at full maturity. Its variegated foliage is just as captivating as its flowerslance-shaped dark green leaves bordered with creamy yellow margins, tinged with pink and red as they emerge. Throughout summer, 'Olympus' produces clusters of rosy-mauve blooms with white centers that are not only fragrant but also nectar-rich, inviting butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden. These flowers are ideal for cutting, allowing you to enjoy their beauty indoors as well.
A variety of Phlox paniculata, 'Olympus' is a hardy perennial suited for Zones 4-8. It is perfect for perennial beds, borders, cottage gardens, and butterfly gardens, blending vibrant color with ecological value.
Grow 'Olympus' in sunny to partly sunny spots with fertile, well-draining soil that holds consistent moisture. Regular watering, especially during dry spells, ensures healthy growth, while summer mulching helps maintain moisture and cool roots. Fertilize in spring to promote lush blooms, and deadhead spent flowers to extend the flowering season. 'Olympus' thrives with minimal care and is naturally resistant to deer.
For best results, plant 'Olympus' phlox roots in spring, spacing them 18 to 24 inches apart and planting 1½ to 2 inches deep.
