Phlox paniculata 'Peppermint Twist' - 2026

Phlox paniculata 'Peppermint Twist' is a compact, upright perennial with lance-shaped deep green leaves. From mid to late summer, it produces dense clusters of fragrant pink flowers with contrasting white stripes, resembling the spokes of a wheel. These blooms attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies while adding vibrant colour, structure, and ecological value to borders, cottage gardens, and mixed plantings.

Thriving in fertile, well-drained soil, 'Peppermint Twist' prefers full sun to partial shade. Regular deadheading of spent flowers encourages continued flowering and maintains a tidy habit. Phlox paniculata 'Peppermint Twist' combines long-lasting floral display, resilience, and wildlife support, making it a versatile and rewarding choice for UK gardens.
