Volcano® Phlox / Hot Tips

Volcano® Phlox

VOLCANO® phlox. The most disease tolerant of all phlox

Volcano® Phlox

VOLCANO® phlox, more color, longer lasting and great disease tolerance

  • For a massed - blow me away show - plant 5-6 plants in a large terra-cotta flat bowl and just watch the show
  • Want even more flowers? Once the first flush of flowers have finished, cut the top third of the stem off and the plants will reflower again.
  • Volcano® phlox are more compact than most perennial phlox making them great for larger landscape and commercial plantings. The free branching habit and short, strong stems will ensure plants don’t fall over providing masses of color from the large clusters of bright flowers
  • Remember when planting to space plants to improve air circulation, which will maximize the natural tolerance to powdery mildew. Also, to enhance natural disease tolerance, avoid overhead watering if possible, or water early in the day to ensure foliage dries quickly.
  • Lots of blooms means the plants like that extra bit of fertilizer that is high in potash, so add the one extra handful when planting

I have used the Rose in the Pink Pot (Flower Carpet roses) in my garden since about 1992-93. It is a wonderful rose. - B.G., New Jersey, USA
