In anticipation of Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day on May Dreams Gardens tomorrow, here are some of the phlox that have been blooming throughout my garden over the last few weeks. Most are heirloom, some are new, and almost all of them are fragrant.
Welcome to Heirloom Gardener

Oh my! Phloxes! Oldfashioned, fragrant and so beautiful!
Such lovely phlox! Thanks for sharing your colorful pictures.
Hiya HLG,
This page is simply exquisite.
That is some garden you have. I have never seen such a wonderful collection of phlox. A real treat to see them all together.
joco.
I love that you focused on one kind of flower because it's so interesting to compare the different colors (I love that very pale blueish white!) Do they smell any different? I have some creeping phlox that blooms early, but just got my first light purple one and hope to get more next year.
I love all your phlox! I've got some blooming, too, but yours just seem to be a bit more vibrant...
Thanks for joining in for bloom day!

Lovely photos ... lovely phlox.
Phlox is my best performing perennial this season. I will add more. Thanks for an overview of different ones.
What is that wonderful blue cultivar?
Doctor Mom,
I think that one is Blue Paradise from White Flower Farm.

Beautiful pictures and a wonderful collection! And they are even fragrant! The Phlox, curiously enough, is not fashionable at us, but I'm crazy about them.
