Laura is a market name for a perennial phlox originally named Uspech. It produces numerous flowers composed in terminal panicles for an extremely long period: July until October. The flowers are fuchsia-purple with a large white star in the middle and a small purple eye right in the centre. Its stems are 60-90 cm tall and form a dense clump. Deciduous leaves are mid green, lanceolate, highly resistant to powdery mildew and black spot.

Growing phlox is easy. It likes almost any garden soil, fertile or poor, but with enough nutrients the flowering will be heavier and the plant will not suffer common phlox diseases. They are long-lived plants that will stay in your garden until you dig them out. Sunny location is preferred but will flower in partial shade, too. Hardy to about -34°C (USDA zone 4).
