The most beautiful flowers of the phlox garden can be planted throughout the summer season, but if you decide to plant them in July, consider a few subtleties.

IN PURPLE AND GOLD

- Do you want to have blooming phloxes as early as possible? Plant ground covers of various colors, - advises Tatiana Zhashkova, chairman of the Flower Growers of Moscow club. - Subulate are suitable for a sunny flower bed, in the shade or partial shade, the splayed and stolon-bearing bloom well. But the most beautiful in this company, of course, are the varieties of phlox paniculata. They have different heights, differ in the size of the flowers and their color. The variety of phlox colors is huge, from pure white to very bright: red, purple, crimson. Not so long ago, variegated varieties appeared with a variegated color of leaves with a yellow, cream edging.

LANDING

Phlox planting rules are very simple. The soil is dug on a shovel bayonet, organic matter (manure, compost) is introduced, peat - 1 -1.5 buckets per 1 sq. m, wood ash - 150 - 200 g or potassium chloride - 30 g, superphosphate - 50 - 60 g.

Acidic soils lime - 200 - 300 g of lime per 1 sq. m, in sandy, in addition to organic fertilizers, clay soil is added, and in heavy clayey - sand. The earth is thoroughly mixed. The roots of the plants are spread out in the planting hole and covered with fertile soil so that the layer above the rhizome does not exceed 3 cm. Water abundantly and shade from the sun.

When planting phloxes in July (unlike September), it is very important to preserve the leaf mass, it is in the leaves that metabolic processes take place, which allow the roots to accumulate nutrients and form replacement buds, which form an elegant bush of flowering phloxes next year.

After planting young plants, they should be sprayed with any stimulant such as Epin, HB-101 or Kornevin in order to accelerate the rooting of the young plant.

IF THE MUSHROOM FALLS

If a white bloom of powdery mildew or black spots appear on the leaves of phlox, then put 1 tablet of Gamair under the diseased bush, if the plant is adult, then the dose should be doubled and even tripled. The tablet is buried 1 cm deep at a distance of 5 - 7 cm from the phlox root collar, then watered thoroughly.

After a week, you need to spray with a cocktail of 2 Alirin tablets and 2 Gamair tablets per 1 liter of water. Repeat the procedure after 2 to 3 weeks if necessary. This can be done not only as a treatment, but also as a prevention of phloxaria. In the latter case, the spray dose should be reduced to 1 tablet of Alirin and 1 tablet of Gamair.

Flowering and watering Phlox blooms long and violently, from spring to mid-October. “In July, like other flowers, phloxes need moisture,” says Tatiana Zhashkova. - But it should be remembered that it is necessary to water phloxes at the root with warm water, watering with cold water in the heat leads to cracking of the stems and disease of plants with powdery mildew.

If you decide to take a bouquet of lush phloxes to Moscow from your summer cottage, you should definitely water the plants abundantly on the eve of cutting.

BY THE WAY

In the homeland of the plant - in North America - phlox was called blue carnation, and the name we know is translated from Greek as flame. This name was given to the flower in 1737 by the Swedish naturalist Karl Linnaeus for the red color of the plant - the ancestor of all garden forms. In total, there are about 50 types of "fire" colors.

According to one of the legends, torches turned into phlox, which illuminated the path of the brave Odysseus and his companions on their journey to the underworld of Hades.
