Phlox paniculata 'Brigadier' - 2026

Phlox paniculata ‘Brigadier’ is a robust perennial admired for its upright spikes of vibrant pink flowers that bloom from midsummer into early autumn. The tall flower clusters rise above lush green foliage, providing height, structure, and long-lasting colour to borders, cottage gardens, or mixed planting schemes. Its nectar-rich blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, offering both ornamental appeal and ecological value.

Thriving in fertile, well-drained soil, this hardy perennial prefers full sun to partial shade and forms dense, low-maintenance clumps that return reliably each year. Cutting back spent flowers encourages further blooms and helps maintain a neat habit. Phlox paniculata ‘Brigadier’ combines long-lasting colour, wildlife support, and resilience, making it a versatile and rewarding choice for UK gardens seeking summer and early autumn interest.
