ProPlantTips for Care:

Plant these herbaceous perennial Phlox in full sun and good air circulation, with at least sihours of sunlight for the most flowers and brightest color. Provide well-drained soil, and be sure to give them supplemental water during their first year and apply water in a prolonged drought. Apply a three-inch layer of mulch around your plant, but make sure to pull it back from the stems.

Deadhead after the flowers fade to encourage a rebloom, then prune your Phloback in late autumn after frost has reduced these herbaceous perennials down for the year. Prune Tall Phloright after the blossoms fade and tidy up the mounds in late autumn after frost. While no plant is truly deer resistant, they do not prefer the taste of these plants. Every 3-5 years, it’s recommended to divide your clumps to maintain vigor and provide you with extra plants to expand your enjoyment. If you live in high Deer pressure areas, be sure to use Deer Repellent during planting, guided by the instructions on the label.
