Volcano® phlox will grow 30 to 40-in tall, so group these by flower color in the middle of garden with larger trees or shrubs behind and smaller perennial or annual border plants in front. The lush dark-colored foliage of Canna Tropicanna® will provide stunning backdrop to the leafy green Volcano® foliage and contrasting flower colors. Contrast and complement with low-growing annuals such as impatiens, perennials, verbena or sage in front along the border of the garden. Select colors to complement the pink, purple, red or white Volcano® flowers or contrasting foliage colors to create visual interest without flowers. Plant Volcano® in groups where the mass of flower color in spring and summer will create a powerful impression as the center-piece of the spring flowering garden.

"I bought 2 of the scarlet carpet roses last year. They have the best color of foliage i have see so far of all your roses. and the bloom color is amazing. The pink supreme i have 2 in my garden. Right now the color hasn't had much chance to develop since we have had so much rain. All the other carpet roses that i have planted over the past several years have bloomed totally beautiful this year. The coral was amazing. The pink was like a bright raspberry color this time. But next year 2009, that is the one i have been wating for. I have the perfect spots for 2 of the new ones you will bringing out for then. They will finish the circle of roses in the front yard around the dogwoods. All i can say is, keep up the good work. Your roses are wonderful. I have beeen giving them as house warming gifts this year for newly built homes. My friends truly loved the scarlet rose for their new front lawn. Thanks for a wonderful rose. What color is next after the 2009 amber? How can you truly top all of these. A violet maybe, or a candystripe."
