Description
Neat, modern and gloriously floriferous, Phlox 'Flatscreen Haze' is the patio star that punches far above its weight. This naturally dwarf phlox forms a crisp, rounded cushion of fresh green leaves to around 20cm, then—almost theatrically—covers itself in generous trusses of soft lilac flowers. The effect is clean and contemporary, like a cloud of colour hovering just above the pot. Plant Phlox 'Flatscreen Haze' along a path, pop it into a favourite container, or tuck it at the front of a small border where space is precious. You’ll love the way Phlox 'Flatscreen Haze' holds its shape without fuss, staying compact yet exuberant from early summer into the mellow months.
Deliciously easy to please, Phlox 'Flatscreen Haze' enjoys sun or light shade and appreciates regular moisture—simple, everyday care for a long, luminous show. The blooms make charming little posies, while in the garden they’re a magnet for bees and butterflies, bringing gentle movement and a hum of life to the terrace. Combine Phlox 'Flatscreen Haze' with cool salvias, silvery foliage or architectural grasses for an effortless, design-led look. That refined, uniform habit means your display stays tidy even at peak flower power; no staking, no sprawling, just a poised mound topped with mirrors of lilac. For small gardens, balconies and courtyards, this dwarf phlox is the easiest way to look impeccably put-together without trying.
The name Phlox comes from the Greek for flame, nodding to the genus's vivid, fiery colours.

Useful information
-
Soak the Phlox 'Flatscreen Haze' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Dwarf phlox" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost within a week of delivery 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.
