Phlox paniculata 'Ka-Pow Pink'
Phlox paniculata, commonly known as garden phlox, is native from New York to Iowa and south to Georgia, Mississippi, and Arkansas. However, it has escaped gardens and naturalized into areas beyond its original native range.
Ka-Pow Pink Garden Phlox has extra-large rounded clusters of lightly fragrant hot pink flowers produced atop sturdy stems. The excellent branching characteristics of this Phlox series ensure an abundance of flowers throughout the summer. Their showing begins in early summer, lasting for several weeks and possibly longer if they are deadheaded. Ka-Pow Pink Phlox is a mildew-resistant, free-flowering selection of our native Phlox paniculata. Provide an entire, primarily sunny site with well-drained soil for the best results. The flowers attract butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds.
Periodic deadheading will help keep them looking clean and extend the flowering season. For the best results with Garden or Summer Phlox, provide good air circulation in moderately rich soil with average moisture in full sun.

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.
