    Hello all

    I hope you are well.

    Could someone please identify this Phlox Cultivar:

    The closest I have managed to get is 'Phlox paniculata 'Flamingo' but I am not sure.

    Thanks in advance

    Too many variables needed eg height.
    Some are dwarf /some taller.
    Colours on pics can vary.

    Sorry wouldn't like to say which one is in your pic.

    Not Phlox paniculata Flamingo as there is no deeper pink eye.
    according to RHS..
    "Details 'Flamingo' is a herbaceous perennial, up to 1.1m high, with green lance-shaped leaves and well-scented pink flowers, with a deeper pink eye, in midsummer"

    See pic...

      Hello @Silver surfer

      Thanks for the reply.

      The Phlox is currently at approximately 850mm tall.

      I see your point regarding the deeper pink eye, mine has a darker pink in the centre but it is not as pronounced as the one in the picture you linked to.

      I will keep looking.

      Thanks

      Kevin
