OSC Seeds Phlox Drummondi Mixed Flowers Pkg.

Approximately 200 seeds/package (500 seeds/gram)

A wide range of colours, many with contrasting eyes, burst out from the compact 20 cm tall plants. Individual florets are very large, and the colours include rather rare lavender-blue and deep blue colours, as well as shades of pink, buff, white and more. Plants can spread to 35 cm across. Germination and seedling establishment is improved with high humidity.

Sow seed directly outdoors, 3 mm deep, in late May, in a sunny site. Phlox resent transplanting, so when starting seed indoors, sow seed in mid-April, using Jiffy 7’s or peat pots filled with a soil-less mix. Keep at 18° C for the 15-day germination period, then grow under lights, at a cooler temperature of 14° C, until hardening off and transplanting outside in early June. Space plants 20 cm apart in the garden.
