Phlox paniculata ‘Norah Leigh’ – 2026

Description

Phlox paniculata ‘Norah Leigh’ is a bushy, upright perennial that reaches approximately 90 cm in height. It features variegated foliage with creamy-white leaves and green centres. In summer, it produces terminal clusters of fragrant pale pink-lilac flowers with darker pink eyes. These blooms attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies while adding long-lasting colour, structure, and ecological value to borders, cottage gardens, and mixed plantings.

Thriving in fertile, well-drained soil, ‘Norah Leigh’ prefers full sun to partial shade. Regular deadheading of spent flowers encourages continued flowering and helps maintain a tidy habit. Phlox paniculata ‘Norah Leigh’ combines floral display, resilience, and wildlife support, making it a versatile and rewarding choice for UK gardens.
