Find answers to common questions about growing Red and White Cutting Phlox, flower harvesting, and seed germination.
Prepare a fertile, well-drained growing medium and sow the phlox seeds according to the packet instructions. Cover the seeds lightly with soil, as Phlox drummondii generally germinates better in darkness. Maintain temperatures around 18–21°C and keep the soil evenly moist. Provide good light after seedlings emerge.
Yes, cutting-type phlox is grown for its attractive flowers and can be used in fresh floral arrangements. Harvest healthy stems when the flowers are beginning to open, preferably during the cooler part of the day. Remove lower leaves and place the stems in clean water to help maintain their freshness.
Provide adequate spacing between plants to improve air circulation and avoid overcrowding. Water near the soil rather than frequently wetting the foliage. Remove affected leaves when necessary and avoid excessive humidity around the plants. Growing phlox in a sunny, well-ventilated location can help reduce the risk of powdery mildew.
