Zorepad – is a mix of phlox plasma seeds that combines a variety of colors and aromatic flowers. The flowers have purple, red-pink, pale pink, light lilac, and beige shades with a white 'star' in the center. The diameter of individual flowers is 2–3.5 cm, and inflorescences are gathered in shield-shaped groups up to 12–15 cm in diameter. Flowers bloom from June to October, providing long-lasting and bright flowering in flowerbeds, borders, balconies, and containers.
The plant grows up to 45–100 cm, has a thin, upright stem with branching branches. The leaves are oval-shaped, dark green in color, and the plants themselves are light-loving and frost-hardy (up to 3–4 degrees). For successful cultivation, you need moist, fertile, loose soil with good drainage. Planting is carried out in March–April: seeds are evenly scattered over the surface of a moist substrate and covered with a thin layer of soil or vermiculite. After the first true leaf appears, seedlings are thinned, and when the ground opens, plants are planted at a distance of 15–20 cm from each other.
Care for Zorepad is simple: on dry days, watering should be done to avoid worsening flowering; standing water is poorly tolerated by the plant. For better blooming, it is recommended to pinch above the fourth–fifth pair of leaves. Phlox is not suitable for use with fresh nitrogen fertilizer, so soil over-wetting should be avoided. Thanks to its aroma and long-lasting flowering, Zorepad is ideal for greening flowerbeds, mixborders, garden vases, balcony boxes, and containers, as well as a decorative element in bouquets.
