Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day August 2008 - My Collection of Fragrant Phlox

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.

    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.

  4. 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.

    Thanks for joining in for bloom day!

  10. 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.
