The phlox is only about 2x2 (big for a phlox plant but certainly not a meadow). It's only just starting to bloom. In a week or so, you won't be able to see the green for the little flowers. To wit:
Sal: They do get spindly when the petals drop - and the leaves hurt my hands - they're so scratchy allergic. But don't you find that they rebloom throughout the summer?
Kate: I think of England as having every flower in the world (other than cacti - and who cares about those!) :-)
Stacy: So true. I must surround myself with them.
Wendy: HIlarious! I did think of that, but then I thought no one would have the slightest idea of what I meant. How I underestimate you readers.
Jules: That is very true. Sometimes, I just go out and stare at the garden and all my stress disappears.

Fashion intersects these. It's how we express what is popular in what is personal. It's where intellect debates sex; where soft and hard duke it out. So much mystery underpins beautiful things. So much confidence rests upon them. Discuss.
So lovely!
ReplyDeleteMy phlox drop their petals after a week or so and look BIZARRE afterwards. But gorgeous while they bloom.
Looks lovely - I've never seen or heard of it before!
