3. I do.like phlox, and you’ve got a great image here.

   1. There are so many different types, but they all have a sweetness about their flowers.

4. Lovely! Isn’t Spring wonderful?

   1. Isn’t it just.

5. So lovely! 💜

   1. Thanks!

6. A very pretty color.

   1. A subtlety in it adds to its appeal.

7. I believe you’ve found a true sky-blue-pink! What interesting colors!

   1. It would make a striking sunset colour.

8. So pretty! And I really like how the different varieties bloom in different seasons. I have a white phlox that blooms in late summer.

   1. I’ve been admiring a patch of white ones here. They seem very long flowering. There are types for sun and types for shade too.

9. Phlox seem to be amenable to a wide variety of conditions. I’ve yet to explore a part of Texas that doesn’t have them, at least for a time. Even in the rocky and dry hill country I’ve seen them alongside streams and in low areas. This is an especially pretty color, and one I don’t recall seeing.

   1. They are amenable, versatile plants. This is the lower-growing type, but I enjoy seeing the taller, border style too.

10. You’re finding all of the springtime treasures!

    1. I’m having a good time looking!
