Re: PHLOX - gift appearance..

I have lots of tall phlox, and I have planted it whenever it was given to me. I have other types of phlox, too, that I have purchased from nurseries in the spring. I think I got it planted then, but it's also possible I let it sit around to the middle of summer. I just love phlox, it just comes back every year like a charm and makes me very happy. It is also incredibly drought resistant.

Subject: [CHAT] PHLOX - gift appearance..


O.K., I have never planted phlox (the tall kind) in my entire life. I
have WANTED to, and looked into buying the "David" because it is
powdery-mildew resistant....but...have not done it yet. I went out to
water my garden last night...and I found a purple phlox blooming in my
garden. I was stunned. I have no neighbors close by (I live in the
country) so where did this come from? The garden fairy must have known
that I wanted some and gave it to me.


Question: what time of year do you buy the tall phlox and plant it? I'm going to do it this year (or next).
