Two New Additions to the Garden
Do you like this story?
Phlox paniculata ' pink flame '
Gaillardia 'goblin '
I love the dwarf perennials which I can put to use in the middle and front garden beds. A few days ago I discovered dwarf forms of two of my favorites , shown above.
The pink flame phlox is fragrant, mildew resistant, blooms from July-September and grows only 15 inches tall.
The goblin blanket flower reaches only 12 inches, blooms sporadically until frost, tolerates heat, poor soils and dry conditions.
Since I have a small urban garden it is important to have flowers that have a long bloom time and these two new additions certainly fit the bill.
