Huh? It was given to us in the spring, in a container, with instructions to
plant in the usual well drained, partly/full/ sun. Like I said, it comes back
every spring, bigger and better than before, but it never gets any blooms!
Or, by under what conditions, do you want me to tell you that I took the
plant,
a shovel, and a beer into the garden area, dug a hole into a spot specified
by
the tag, planted the Phlox as instructed, and then drank the beer.
It's been five years and many beers later. The Phlox is still growing, I'm
still enjoying beer, but I've yet to see a bloom.
That question wasn't worded very well, was it? I should have asked you
whether the phlox received full sun, partial sun or shade. The phlox in
my garden that lives in semi-shaded conditions blooms a little at best.
The phlox in full sun blooms like crazy.
Perhaps you can dig 'em up and move them to a sunnier spot, have some
beers & hope for the best?
