Description
We defy you to find a cultivar of Phlox paniculata with brighter or whiter flowers than those of Phlox 'Rembrandt'. In fact, its flowers are practically the purest white of any white garden flower! They stand out like beacons against their green leaves, especially in a lightly shaded border where other flowers will merge into the gloom. Amazingly, the blooms are also highly scented—particularly on a warm, still, summer’s day, when the fragrance is intoxicating. This fragrance is, of course, designed to attract any passing butterflies or other pollinating insects.
Most types of Phlox are excellent for cutting and indoor vase decoration, and this cultivar is no exception. It is also a very accommodating plant: it is tolerant of all soil conditions, in full sun or part shade, it is happy in borders or patio containers, and is even relatively slug-resistant!
With a height of up to 90cm, Phlox paniculata 'Rembrandt' is best situated mid-way in a border, where its flowers can be viewed unobscured, from mid-summer until well into autumn.

Useful information
-
Soak the Phlox 'Rembrandt' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
