Abstract

A unique cultivar of Tall Phlox plant named ‘Prismatic Pink’ is characterized by vigorous, dense, upright, highly branched peduncles, with dark-green, lanceolate leaves. Flowering begins in mid-July and continues for up to about six weeks in cooler weather conditions, on heavily-branched peduncles, and completely covers the top of the plant in peak season. Flower petals are bubblegum pink with a dark pink eye. The new plant shows excellent powdery mildew resistance. The new plant is especially suitable for a cut flower, for the landscape as a potted plant, and in the garden as a specimen or en masse.
