Q: We're building planters and want hassle-free perennials. Is tall phlox a good choice?
A: Phlox is beautiful but can be ravaged by powdery mildew. No maintenance prevents it once established. Best strategy: plant only mildew-resistant cultivars like 'David', 'Robert Poore', and 'John Fanick'. These appear on several disease-resistant lists. Don't let nursery beauty seduce you—ensure the phlox you plant are proven mildew-resistant.
