Dark stems and buds and bronze-tinged leaves add to the rich look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt flowers heavily from midsummer, reblooms and has better powdery mildew resistance than older dark purple phlox. At 32 to 36 inches, it anchors the middle of the border, cuts well and draws butterflies, bees and hummingbirds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDome-shaped panicles are made of flat, five-petaled flowers about 1 inch across in very dark magenta violet, opening from dark buds. The panicles top dark, sturdy, upright stems. Leaves are lance-shaped, bright green with a bronze flush, arranged in pairs along the stems. The plant forms a full, bushy, upright clump about 32 to 36 inches tall and 28 to 32 inches wide. At peak bloom deep violet heads cover the top of the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhlox enjoys sun like lavender but wants richer soil and more regular water, so plant it in an adjacent cottage border, where its deep violet flowers pick up as the first lavender bloom winds down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrow in full sun to part shade in average to fertile soil kept evenly moist; full sun and good air flow give the most flowers and the healthiest leaves.
