Description / Popstars™ Red Phlox Seeds
A familiar favorite: jagged two-tone stars and a dwarf habit. Popstars™ is a stunning departure for Drummond's Phlox, a mounded annual plant simply covered with brilliant, showy stars all summer long.
The flowers begin in early summer in most climates, each 1½ to 2 inches wide and sporting cerise red tones near the center, lighter watermelon and almost white hues at the tips. Bred in England and an instant sensation in Europe, they are perfect for American gardens, easy to start from seed and determined to bloom all summer (and into fall in many climates).
Popstars™ Red reaches just 8 to 10 inches high and wide, packing so many blooms atop the foliage that you might not catch a glimpse of green at the height of the season. Use this annual in flowerpots of all kinds, march it up the driveway or along a path, and dot it among other flowering plants in any patch of sunny soil. So adaptable, quick, and easy.
