Cheering Up Mondays #236

The first of the phlox has opened in the garden.

It’s not a plant that’s really suited to my sandy soil so I grow it in a shadier part of the garden that doesn’t dry out so much.

I’ve no idea what variety it is – another cutting from my dad that came without a name.

  1. I can’t grow Phlox either. The wilt.
    But i remember it from my London childhood when we pulled off a flower and sucked the nectar through the tube. It was very common in London front gardens.
