Description

The tall flame flower 'Ice Cream' and especially the perennials of the Phlox paniculata class have developed from an insider tip to a popular cultivar for all gardens in recent years. This is undoubtedly due to their beautiful flowers, their ease of care and cultivation and, ultimately, their magnificent overall appearance. The tall flame flower 'Ice Cream' is no exception and is actually something of an insider tip among fans and friends of these plants. With its delicate nature, it is an eye-catcher in any summer garden or rockery that is really worth the effort. For although its flower has the appearance of being monochrome, the tall flame flower 'Ice Cream' is surrounded by a delicate, lilac-pink shimmer when you look at it. This is due to its flower head, which stands in the center of the flower. This is not the only reason why the plant is a meeting point for bees and all living creatures in the garden. A plant that is used correctly in the center or at the edge of the garden. The location is also important for the gardener. The tall flame flower 'Ice Cream' is a demanding plant. It goes without saying that the Ice Cream is a very interesting phlox not only during its flowering, but also throughout its entire planting. However, the trend of its original origin is to provide it with the freshest possible soil, as this is how it feels most comfortable and thrives in all its glory. It is important for garden enthusiasts to cut back the plant with light winter protection to create new growth and rejuvenate the plant. Special notes: Flowering time: 'Ice Cream' flowers from July to September. The inflorescences are decorative and fragrant. Pruning: Cut the plant back in spring to make room for new growth and to rejuvenate the plant. Frost protection: The tall flame flower 'Ice Cream' is hardy, but light winter protection can be helpful in extremely cold regions. Cut the plant back in spring before new growth starts.
