Phloxes are withering
The phlox bush began to wither, only half. The stems of some of the bush are alive, but some are withered. What could be the problem?

I think it's most likely someone eating the roots of the plant. Or it got sick with something. Perhaps you should feed him something healthy and necessary. Examine the plant carefully and you will find the reason. Good luck!
Yesterday I dug up tulip bulbs for drying and replanting and decided to transplant this grief - a phlox bush - to another place. Under it there were 2 huge hrobak. They did a good job of damaging the phlox root; I hope it will take root in its new location before the fall, otherwise it won’t survive the winter.
First of all, this is a constant, thorough inspection of plantings, timely identification and destruction of diseased plants. Nematodes are carriers of many phytopathogenic viruses. Therefore, when planting collections, it is necessary to conduct a soil analysis for nematode infestation. If they are found, the area is treated with nematicides. The spread of infections is facilitated by the use of contaminated garden tools (secateurs), and the virus is also carried by moles, fallen flowers from infected plants and other plant debris, etc. It has been noticed that diseases are transmitted by cuttings and even seeds from infected plants. Therefore, it is so important to promptly identify affected plants, as well as sources of infected planting material. It is necessary to have at least a small quarantine area for newly arrived varieties.The holes from the removed diseased plants are etched.
This summer there was a specific drought... I don’t remember this for a long time
