If you have been thinking about planting phlox in your garden this year and wondering what the best month to plant them is that is April to be able to transplant them into the ground in June when the weather gets warmer. The reason for wanting to plant them in April is that they will be ready to bloom in August.
Phlox are great in pots but when planted in the ground you need to make sure they have a good base of organic matter such as peat or compost that can hold moisture and prevent dry rot. If you are not sure what type of soil you have on your property then you should contact a local garden center and ask them.
