The only weed I get around the phlox is that very tiny, creeping, red clover. All good plants should have such strong roots!

Preen and mulch is all I can think of to hold down the weeding. Many weed seeds come flying when the lawn is mowed - that's where the great majority of mine come from and I don't know how I could prevent it.

I usually do mulch that area, & have planted some DLs to hold the soil....everything is displaced though because the fellow dug all around the fence....will just have to see what comes up....weeds for sure!

It will be an annual for me. Supposed to be a butterfly magnet. I had seeds but never started it.
