To the satisfaction of many gardening enthusiasts, phloxes are not difficult to grow. In order for them to grow healthy and lush, you need to provide them with a fertile and moist soil. The site should be bright, but not necessarily very sunny. Tall stalks with heavy flowers feel much better at sites that are sheltered from the wind. Do not plant phloxes in water-logging or clay soil. Those plants require watering during drought periods. Rapid growth and abundant form of the plants makes fertilization a must. You do not have to dig out phloxes after the season, this hardy perennial can grow on the same site for years.
