Suitability for cutting — Phlox paniculata

Phlox paniculata L.

An economically valuable trait of Phlox paniculata, determined by stem strength, inflorescence density, and the resistance of flowers to deformation caused by weather factors.

In the reference 51 varieties crop Garden phlox, where this is mentioned in the description.

When evaluating the suitability of Phlox paniculata for cutting, the plant's morphological characteristics are of key importance: stem strength and thickness, as well as the density and brightness of the inflorescences. Varieties possessing robust shoots and compact inflorescences better maintain their ornamental value in a vase, which makes them the most promising for use in bouquets.

An important factor is the resistance of the flowers to moisture, which is determined by the density of the petals and the length of the floral tube. Insufficient petal density or excessive tube length lead to rapid wilting and loss of commercial quality after rain or dew. The optimal stage for cutting is considered to be the period when the bud coloration becomes clearly defined.
