✂️ Care
Regularly remove spent flowers to encourage prolonged and abundant blooming. A light prune in spring ensures a compact and well-branched shape.
Apply an organic mulch at the base to retain soil moisture and gradually enrich its structure.
Water regularly during hot and dry periods. Once established, this 'Laura' phlox thrives vigorously and becomes a true haven for butterflies, bees, and essential pollinators in your garden.
