I found these flowers on the outskirts of the forest. I saw that flowerbeds sometimes decorated such flowers. What kind of wind brought these flowers to the forest, I do not know. There were not many flowering phloxes, but there are a whole plantation there.
I think that when they all bloom, there's a magical sight. Against the background of green pines, there is a sea of pink flowers. I'm sorry that this year I do not recognize it.
The native land of phlox is North America. Wikipedia knows only one wild species of phlox that grow on our continent, it's a Siberian phlox. But, I very much doubt that this plant is the Siberian flox.
As you can see, this plant has very powerful stems and leaves. Wild plants, usually, more along the ground. I'm talking about phlox.
That's an interesting meeting. I took some pictures with my own pleasure.
