*Even drought tolerant annual and perennial plants will need water for the first few weeks while they get established.

No plant is truly drought tolerant in a container; water is necessary for all plants in containers.

Growing Tips
Self-cleaning, deadheading not necessary. This is not necessarily true of all Phlox.
Will do best in well-drained soil.
Rabbits may find Phlox very tasty.
An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.
