While searching for potential garden additions of Pulmonaria and Tall Garden Phlox this past year I found many breeders claiming powdery mildew resistance for their plants. An internet search for "Powdery Mildew Resistance" yields a variety of results for studies on Phlox, Pulmonaria, Pumpkins and Squash, etc. While most studies report varying degrees of resistance to Powdery Mildew (excellent, fair, poor, etc.) I think a simple check box in our database, as follows, could be helpful. What do you all think?
