This '90s, "way cool", 2' tall selection of our East Coast native border phlox was discovered in 1989 as a sport of Phlox maculata 'Omega' by Luc Klinkhamer of Holland while visiting the Minsk Botanic Garden (former USSR). Named after Natascha Lunina, the garden curator at Minsk, Phlox 'Natascha' is topped in early summer with unbelievable bicolor candy-striped flowers of pinkish purple-and-white...it looks like a painted pinwheel! As with all Phlox maculata cultivars, Phlox 'Natascha' has excellent mildew-resistance. Plant this clumper where everyone can see it, and wait to hear the excitement!
