Add organic matter to the soil by mixing in 2-4 layers of dehydrated manure, garden compost, shredded leaves, and/or peat moss.
Dig a hole large enough to spread out the roots without bending them. Set the crown with buds about 1 inch below the soil surface.

Continuing Care
Proper care is essential for the health and growth of your Fragrant Butterfly Attracting Phlox Grape Expectations Trio.

Watering
Water well after planting and keep the soil moist but not soggy. Regularly check the moisture levels and adjust the watering accordingly.

Mulching

Apply a 2-4 inch layer of mulch around the plants to promote moisture retention and maintain even garden soil temperatures.

Weeding
Keep the area around your plants free of weeds. Weeds compete with the plants for nutrients, water, and light. Regularly walk around the garden and pull out any weeds.

Grooming
Remove spent flower stems after flowering to maintain an attractive bushy perennial throughout the summer.

Winterizing
In preparation for winter dormancy, discontinue any foliar or liquid feed by early September. Let the foliage die back naturally in the fall.
