Granny's Flowers

 Many of us love fragrant flowers, and phlox is no exception. I recently learned that they are called "granny's flowers." Probably because phlox are grown in a village front garden, cottage garden, used in groups, arrays, flower beds, mixborders, parks since the time of our grandmothers.

 

 The flowers are fragrant, white, pink, red, lilac, scarlet, blue, carmine with an eye in the center.

 

The popularity of phlox is associated with unpretentiousness, frost resistance, as well as bright lush flowering, a unique aroma. Phlox can be used in landscape-style flower beds, in imitations of a flowering meadow, romantic compositions, in shady gardens, when decorating forest edges, in rock gardens, near ponds.

 

 

These unpretentious perennials bloom from July to the end of September, winter well and do not require constant care, like roses.

To tell the truth, I pay little attention to phlox. But they are not offended and bloom in various corners of my garden. I walk past, inhale their scent and think: it is already August and the phlox have bloomed.
