We deserve the cooler wetter summer after the winter that broke 200 year old records.
I sympathize for California and their drought but its been marvelous here.

Thank you to chelle for my beautiful assortment of phlox! They will have a good home. So now my phlox collection includes Minnie Pearl and some beautiful pink and purple additions we shall see what colors they are when they bloom next year!
It's so nice to already be envisioning next years garden.

You're welcome, Judy. I hope they do well for you.

I'm really looking forward to your daylily trade.

Not sure which ones I have by name, but just wanted to share a few pics. Phlox are one of my favorite perennials......

The deer feasted on most of them this year otherwise Id have a lot more pics to share. Also have had lots of powdery mildew this year.

Pretty colors. I have to get more phlox.

Chelle and Vickie, I love you phlox collections. The Cleome look good with the phlox. I have David and a couple others whose names elude me right now. I got Laura from Santa Rosa nursery last fall and I absolutely love it- her



Phlox Laura

I have Laura here, too, Mike. She struggled mightily in one spot (I think it gets too much runoff from the farm field uphill), so over the past couple of years I've moved pieces to other areas. Those seem to be doing much better, so I guess it's time to move the rest.

Yours look wonderful! Are they still blooming now? Mine are finished for this year, and I've deadheaded the lot.

I saw this Phlox online called 'Goldmine.' Have any of you got this one or seen it for sale. I must have it!

That is nice. I have 'Shockwave' and 'Becky Towe" I have a passion for variegated plants, never seen that one for sale.

I would love to find this one.

Shockwave is awesome. I need to contact Plant Delights and see if I can get Goldmine from them.

Clintbrown, This phlox is listed in a few nurseries if Googled. "Perennial Delights " and "Garden Supply "

Thanks Jo Ann. I'll order it next Spring. It's a beauty!

Chelle, Laura is putting up a few erratic blooms.
I love variegated plants. Jack Frost Brunnera is one of my fav.

Would like to try some of the V-Phlox also.
