five lobed white blooms. Also known as Night Balsam, Star Balsam,
Night Candy, Night Phlox or Midnight Candy.

pots. Keep moist a 50-55F. Seedlings should be transplanted
when they reach 2 inches in height, and kept shaded from direct
sunlight until well established, then exposed to full sunlight.

Make certain to plant them near doorways or patios or in
window boxes where their intense evening scent (sweet and reminiscent
of cake or cookies) can be enjoyed.
