Miss Lingard
Phlox ‘Miss Lingard’ is an heirloom and an early blooming white.
Plant Description
Often called the Wedding Phlox, Phlox ‘Miss Lingard’ proffers pure white blossoms just in time for wedding season. In Vermont it starts blooming in mid-late June, about four weeks before the Tall Garden Phlox, and carries on for one month. It often reblooms in September. This cultivar is derived from the native Phlox carolina, which compared to P. paniculata, is of overall daintier dimensions, and has leaves which are much more shiny and leathery and which always show superb mildew resistance. One of the oldest cultivars still available, it dates from the end of the 19th century.
