Nice group! I especially like Mediterranean Sailor. I was so disappointed in Liberty Banner since it didn't bloom the color that Celeste's did. It was a very red purple here, and I moved it out last year.

Thanks Debra!

A phlox I bought my wife last year.

Milano Crimson Tide

A seedling from a few years ago that never did much. I thought I got rid of it but it is attached to the one I call veracity. It's not taking much room and is pretty so for now it can stay.

I like Pinhill Claret Symphony, interesting about the sun exposure. With my yard getting more shade in spots, its nice to know. I like your last seedling with the white midrib, glad you are keeping it.

I suspect the ones bred around NH where Celeste lives would like shade more in general when moving south due to the climate differences. Liberty Banner is actually darker than the photo suggests.

Brad

I love Mediterranean Sailor color. Wilson Spider is pretty. And that last seedling does look good with the midrib.

Lots of prettty shades of purples, Brad. Nice post.

Am I right in assuming your favorite color is purple? You have a nice selection of them. I am a fan of phlox. I have several colors here but not the color you showed. hmmm, I may have to go and look for it at the nursery.

Thanks all for the comments.

Julia, yes purple is my favorite.

The variety of Phlox is called Laura. I got them on the internet somewhere but I don't recall where.

M Sailor looks good. Curt will work to his dying day for an elusive shade of lavender free of any pink.
