Garden phlox (Phlox) "Tequila Sunrise" is a variety with saturated, raspberry-red-orange inflorescences. The phlox cultivar that we offer here develops a compact habit, reaching 40-50 cm in height, that makes it fit into smaller gardens. The erect, reddish steams are covered with elongated, spiky leaves. Ornamental, truly spectacular racemose corymbs with a dazzling aroma develop atop the stalks. Their unique, bright colour is additionally accentuated by the darker spot. The "Tequila Sunrise" variety is valued for its long and exuberant blooming. A compact bushy habit and relatively small height also belong to the advantages of this phlox, as they allow it to act as a great filler for borders, flower beds and lawns. This phlox looks especially stunning in smaller groups that form a distinct, colourful spot. We recommend to cut the half-open inflorescences and put them into vases. They will adorn the room with their intriguing, energising colour and the alluring fragrance.

Phloxes are well known and popular garden perennials that show high resistance to different weather conditions. They prefer to grow on bright and sunny sites, yet they tolerate partial shade. Cultivation of this undemanding perennial brings best results on sandy-clay, well drained, humous and moist soil.
