Have had a white phlox for over ten years and this year it now has light pink flowers.
Am pretty sure the phlox is Phlox paniculata 'White Admiral'. Keep all plant taggs.
Have certainly read of self-seeding by hybrid phlox producing colour changes back to parental types. But have also read that White Admiral is sterile. And also, all of the flowers on the plant, this year, are this light pink colour and there's never been anything but white flowers in all years before. Although the plant is in a work area of my garden, it's in a location where I believe I would have noticed seeding in the past.
For several years, I have been intending to dispose of the plant because is was always so prone to mildew, but this year there's no mildew (at least so far).
