Curious, indeed!
I had earlier thought it curious . . . once the phlox began to bloom.
Even though, last fall, I had dug out a particular clump or two of
phlox that mildewed badly over the previous three years,
there seemed to be Many More plants, and groups of plants, than I'd remembered there being . . .
Curious, indeed!
Now, let's look over the following photos. What do you notice?
Here, in a shady bed that was once dominated by David (white) phlox, we see something that has been transpiring over the past three years . . .
And this is in the Shady "Raised Bed" area, not far away, where lavender David seems to be enlarging his territory . . . thanks to the pollinators?
A CURIOSITY?
P.S. I'm trying to keep these two phlox "out of the mainstream!" (Both given me by my Aunt MEA)
'Laura'
and "Mattie"
Enjoy a Day of Curiosity!

It is always interesting to me how nature can do the most unexpected things. Great shots of the phlox. Carver, ABCW-Team
Very interesting indeed! I've noticed clumps of phlox turning up where I least expect it this year too. I mostly just try to deadhead them as soon as I see what color they are (before they set seed), and then dig them up and either move them or get rid of them. I live on a windy hill and my phlox rarely exhibit mildew, but sometimes they're too tall and floppy -- no staking allowed! Your phlox are beautiful! -Beth
charming colors!

Great post, really enjoyed the photos!
I wish I could have a garden as beautiful. Such lovely pictures!
I have some phlox which will be ready to plant out shortly - just busy trying to get a suitable area sorted.
Many thanks to each of you for your visits. I wish I had time to address each of your nice comments!
