Phlox subulata x stolonoifera 'Paparazzi Jagger'
Phlox is a genus of about 70 species, mostly native to North America, grown for their showy flowers. The Paparazzi Series consists of a number of spring-flowering hybrid phlox cultivars that typically grow in low mounds to 5-10” tall. The parents are unpatented varieties of Phlox subulata (seed parent) crossed with unpatented varieties of Phlox stolonifera (pollen parent).
Paparazzi Jagger features an abundant late spring bloom of salverform purple flowers with darker eyes, which bloom in late spring in clustered cymes atop low-growing plants rising to 5” tall but spreading to 10” wide. Each flower has a long corolla tube and five flat, petal-like lobes. Burgundy stems and burgundy-tinted foliage are noticeable in spring. Plants are noted for having vigorous growth, early flowering, a long flowering period, and good resistance to powdery mildew.
Excellent for dry sunny locations. Excellent selection for rock gardens, cottage gardens, wild gardens, native plant gardens or prairie-type areas, edging.

Winter Shipping: We will continue to ship throughout winter. If you prefer, we are happy to hold your order until spring; please include that request in your shipping notes.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
