Phlox – A Nostalgic Perfume of Czech Summer
Phlox belongs to the phlox family (Polemoniaceae) and comes from North America, where it grows as a perennial. It is a flower that carries memories of holidays at grandma's, morning dew, and hot August afternoons. Its dense flower clusters and intoxicating, sweetly spiced scent make it the absolute queen of summer bouquets. If you want a bouquet that fills a room not just with beauty but with natural fragrance too, Phlox is the obvious choice.
Why Phlox cannot be missing from a summer vase:
-
A colour palette: From innocent white through romantic pink to dramatic purple.
-
Incredible volume: A single stem of Phlox looks like a small bouquet on its own, adding richness to an arrangement.
-
Symbolism: It represents harmony, unity, and sweet dreams.
Tip from Andrea (Seasonal Arrangements Specialist): “Phlox is the essence of summer to me. At our stall at the Kulaťák farmers' market, customers often stop by simply because they catch its scent before they even see it. I love it in mixed bouquets, where it feels playful and meadow-like. My professional advice: Phlox is an incredibly thirsty flower. It drinks far more than other blooms in a vase, so check the water level every day. It rewards you by opening its little flowers gradually, right down to the very last bud.”
✦ Use: Phlox is the soul of our seasonal bouquets and gives them exactly the right country flair – we do not offer it as a standalone item, you will always find it as an accent.
