Everwilde Farms - 1 lb Large Flowered Phlox Native Wildflower Seeds - Gold Vault Bulk Seed Packet

These showy, flower clusters bloom on tall upright stalks. In the wild, the annual grows mainly in northwestern America and Canada but can be easily grown successfully in almost any garden. This wildflower was first found near the Columbia River and described in 1828 by Scotsman David Douglas, the first botanist to methodically find and classify over 250 plants in the northwestern region of the United States. The genus name Collomia, bestowed by English botanist Thomas Nuttall, comes from the Greek word meaning "glue," a reference to the sticky seeds of the plants in this family. The species name "grandiflora" means large-flowered.
