The main method of reproduction of paniculate phloxes - by dividing the bush (in the spring, before the mass emergence of stems, or in the fall). But if there are few plants, you can propagate by stem stems.

Do this from late May to mid-July.

Choose strong stems with developed leaves, use only neodrevesnevshie parts. Cut the cuttings from them with a sharp knife or a pruner so that each one has two leaf nodes.

The first cut is made right below the lower node and leaves are removed on it. The top cut is 0.5 cm above the second node, the leaves are cut half by one. From one stem, you can get 3-9 cuttings.

Plant them in a tall container with a lid (mini-greenhouse) or directly into the ground on a specially prepared bed.

Soil mixture is prepared from sheet humus, garden land and sand (1: 1: 1), the thickness of this layer should be at least 10 cm, then pour sand (5 cm). Before planting the bed is well spilled with water. The cuttings are planted at a distance of 5-6 cm from each other, the sand around them is compacted with fingers. After that, plantings are watered and pritenyayut For this, set the arc and cover them with a film folded in half.

For the first time, the garden bed with cuttings regularly, in the morning and in the evening, is sprayed with water, avoiding the drying of the soil. As soon as new leaflets appear in the upper nodes of the plants (it means that the cuttings took root) - the shading is removed, but still it is necessary to closely monitor the moisture of the soil.

In July, it will be possible to transplant the young generation of phlox to another bed for growing, at a distance of 15-20 cm from each other, but to a permanent place - only in the spring of next year.

  Cuttings of phlox are usually when their shoots grow to the height of 7-8. See a sharp knife cut the stem - if not with roots, then at least with a heel. I arrange a shoe in a shady place. I prepare the substrate from sand, humus and forest loam (1 2: 2). I dig up a little ash on the bottom of the holes. I deepen the cuttings on 1,5-2, see the distance between them - 25-30 see between the rows - 15-20, see I place low arcs above the school and cover with lugrasil. The land in the aisles and between the phlox mulch straw. For the night I cover the bed with a film. The day after planting, I spray the cuttings with a solution of "Elina".
  Weeks after two, when the "seedlings" will take root, begin to feed, alternating (up to 10 August) "mineral water" and organic.
  The dosage of fertilizers is reduced by half. First I give Kemir Kombi (0,5st./10l of water). Through nedolju I feed with an extract of manure (1 of item / 10 l of water). In the heat, I remove the film.
