Growing and Maintenance Tips

Phlox grows best in rich, well-drained soil that remains consistently moist. As a heavy feeder, it benefits from a fall mulch of compost to maintain soil fertility and organic matter. The varieties we offer are mildew resistant; however, plants should not be overcrowded, as good air circulation is essential for healthy growth.
