- Phlox ‘Olympus’ is a wonderful addition to the garden if you want a perennial to give you weeks of colour and fragrance. Produces clusters of soft, eye-catching blooms above neat green foliage for a relaxed, cottage garden feel to borders, and also attracts bees and butterflies all summer.
- The flowers make a great cut bloom so you can enjoy their beauty indoors as well. This variety prefers a sunny or partially shaded site with fertile, moisture-retentive, well drained soil. Water during long dry spells, especially when the plant is getting established, and snip off faded flower heads to encourage even more blooms. With very little maintenance it will come back year after year, growing into a reliable clump that puts on an ever more impressive show.
- Whether you are re-vamping an existing border or designing an entirely new planting scheme, Phlox 'Olympus' is an easy perennial to grow that offers long-lasting colour, gentle fragrance and lots of appeal for pollinators. A reliable garden favourite that will give you beautiful flowers year after year.
