Fun facts
The David White Phlox, often a star in garden shows, has an amusing reputation for being irresistible—not just to humans but to a host of winged visitors. Amidst their serene bloom, you might find butterflies hosting a tiny tea party while hummingbirds dip by for a quick nectar cocktail. Interestingly, phlox has been known to have a rather hardy disposition, with one gardener swearing by its ability to survive a rogue soccer ball attack—adding to its legend of durability!
