Phlox 'Minnie Pearl' (Minnie Pearl Garden Phlox)

Sun to Part SunZone: 5-9 12" tall Origin: USA

This stunning new native phlox was found by Mississippi plantswoman Karen Partlow along the road in Kemper, Mississippi. P. 'Minnie Pearl' appears to be a naturally-occurring hybrid between P. maculata and possibly P. glaberrima. As is normal in the South, birth records are often missing or incorrect. For us, P. 'Minnie Pearl' begins flowering in mid-to-late April on 1' tall spikes...months earlier than other P. maculata types. The P. maculata-like stalks include glossy-green foliage topped with large, pure white flowers. The unique aspect to the hybrid is the amazingly early flowering period, no mildew, and a spreading habit. For us, P. 'Minnie Pearl' makes a 2' wide patch in 3 years. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
