Description
Smoky rose, blush, latte, and a soft caramel eye. Cherry Caramel brings vintage tones you don’t see in ordinary phlox. The plants bloom nonstop from early summer to frost, draw bees and butterflies, and make effortlessly romantic bouquets. Colors soften and layer as each cluster opens, so every stem looks arranged already.
