Phlox

Phlox is a beautiful plant originating from North America. It brings a romantic mood to summer flower beds, and at Loukykvět, you can find both classic garden perennials and smaller annual varieties. The annuals are shorter and are a great fit if you're struggling with limited space in your flower beds. Phlox flowers are popular for cut flower bouquets, where, in addition to their vibrant colors, they delight with a pleasant scent. We have found them to be excellent for delicate wedding floristry. Growing annual phlox is also quite easy. If you're unsure about the preparation, check out our guide on how to sow. Phlox isn't too demanding and will look great outdoors for a long time. We recommend harvesting the flowers for vases when about half of them are open so they bring you joy for as long as possible.

Phlox Franz Schubert, Loukykvět

Phlox paniculata

Phlox, known as 'plamenka' in Czech, is originally a native perennial from the moister meadows and forest edges of North America. It soon achieved great popularity in European gardens and has been systematically bred since the nineteenth century. It is a classic garden perennial that brings a romantic mood and abundant floods of flowers to summer beds. The approximately one meter tall straight stems are adorned with deep green leaves and bear dense inflorescences on top from July to August. At the same time, the whole plant smells very pleasantly, which acts as a reliable magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies from the wide surroundings. Although phlox is very easy to grow and even complete beginners can manage the care, it pays to pay attention to the correct choice of location. We send customers already mature seedlings in a pot, which you can easily transplant directly into the garden. Here, phlox thrives best in a sunny to semi-shady location with loamy, humous, and well-drained soil. It is ideal to keep a spacing of about fifty centimeters when planting so that each clump has enough space to grow. They like plenty of moisture, and stable humidity is important to them. During severe drought, they can react sensitively and be more susceptible to powdery mildew, so they will welcome more abundant watering in the hot summer. Fortunately, you don't have to worry about pests; they avoid it. As for winter, you can throw your worries behind you, because the plant can handle severe frosts down to minus thirty-four degrees. In ornamental beds, phlox stands out both individually in larger groups and in combination with other summer perennials or shorter ornamental grasses. Furthermore, it is an absolutely ideal plant for cutting into vases. It will lend your home not only beautiful pastel colors but also its unmistakable sweet scent. We recommend harvesting stems for bouquets when approximately half of the flowers in the main inflorescence are already fully open. If you provide them with clean water, they will reward you with extraordinary durability and will easily last ten days in a vase. The Franz Schubert variety attracts with purple to pink flowers that fade towards the edges. The pastel color stands out in the vicinity of darker-colored plants.

Phlox Sweet Summer Sensation, Loukykvět

Phlox paniculata

Phlox, also known as garden phlox, is originally a native perennial of North America. It soon achieved great popularity in European gardens and has been systematically bred since the 19th century. It is a classic perennial for cutting into bouquets, where, in addition to colorful flowers, it also delights with a gentle fragrance. We harvest as soon as roughly half of the flowers in the inflorescence have bloomed; then they last up to 10 days in a vase.

The Sweet Summer series includes cultivars bred for greater resistance to fungal diseases. Sweet Summer Sensation has light pink flowers with a darker purplish eye. They contrast beautifully with the dark green leaves.

Phlox Winnetou, Loukykvět

Phlox amplifolia

Phlox is originally a native perennial from North America that established a firm position in European gardens back in the 19th century. A specific trait of this species is that it better tolerates the root competition of trees and shrubs. Because of this, it is also suitable for semi-shady undergrowth where other perennials might struggle, although it will always welcome plenty of moisture. Winnetou is a robust and vigorous variety that will delight you with a long blooming period. Its flowers shine with a deep dark pink color that transitions to an intense red towards the center. They last up to 10 days in a vase, and in addition to their colorful beauty, they will bring a delicate, typically summer fragrance into your home. We ideally harvest them when about half of the flowers in the cluster are open. In the garden, this cultivar perfectly complements softer colors, such as those of the Minnehaha variety.

Phlox Great Smoky Mountains, Loukykvět

Phlox amplifolia

Phlox, known in Czech as plamenka, is originally a native perennial from the moister meadows and forest edges of North America. It soon reached great popularity in European gardens and has been systematically bred since the nineteenth century. It is a classic garden perennial that will bring a romantic mood and abundant floods of flowers to summer flowerbeds. The straight stems, about one meter tall, are adorned with deep green leaves and bear dense inflorescences on the tops from July to August. At the same time, the whole plant smells very pleasant, which acts as a reliable magnet for bees, bumblebees, and butterflies from the wide surroundings. Although phlox is very easy to grow and even complete beginners can handle its care, it pays to pay attention to the right choice of location. We send customers fully grown seedlings directly in pots, which you can easily transplant straight into the garden. Here, phloxes benefit most from a sunny to partially shaded location with loamy, humous, and well-drained soil. It is ideal to maintain a spacing of about fifty centimeters when planting, so that each clump has enough space to grow. They like plenty of moisture, and stable humidity is important for them. During severe drought, they can react sensitively and be more prone to powdery mildew, so they will welcome more abundant watering in the hot summer. Fortunately, you do not have to worry about pests, they avoid it. As for winter, you can cast your worries aside, because the plant can handle severe frosts down to minus thirty-four degrees. In ornamental flowerbeds, phlox stands out both on its own in larger groups and in combination with other summer perennials or lower ornamental grasses. Besides that, it is an absolutely ideal plant for cutting into vases. It will lend your home not only beautiful colors but also its unmistakable sweet fragrance. We recommend harvesting stems for bouquets when approximately half of the flowers in the main inflorescence are already fully opened. If you provide them with clean water, they will reward you with exceptional durability and easily last ten days in a vase. The Great Smoky Mountains cultivar belongs to the Phlox amplifolia species, which is valued for its natural resistance to powdery mildew and healthy growth. Unlike classic paniculate phloxes, this species has more loosely structured inflorescences in blue-purple tones. Therefore, it looks airier and fits perfectly even into wilder, naturally styled plantings, where its fragrance will attract a multitude of pollinators.
