It is a plant that constantly needs moisture and good soil drainage. It needs regular watering and more often in the summer. Phlox is a plant with moderate fertilizer requirements. It needs a special fertilizer for flowering plants (1-2 times spring after planting). We also add compost when we plant the plant.

Its flowers, monochromatic or bichromatic, single or double, are numerous and grow in groups, often covering the entire plant. Their color is in shades of white, red to deep blue. The phlox in our country is used as a spring annual and blooms from the end of spring until the whole summer. The plant forms a moderate root system that allows plants to be planted in groups, close to each other.
