✂️ Care
Regularly deadhead spent flowers to prolong blooming and encourage the production of new flower clusters. Light pruning in early spring promotes dense branching and a balanced shape.
Apply an organic mulch at the base to retain moisture and gradually improve soil fertility.
Maintain regular watering during hot periods. Once well-established, this phlox grows vigorously and becomes a natural magnet for butterflies and bees.
