Larger flowers than other Creeping Phlox engulf dark green needle-like foliage. Fragrant deep pink flowers sparkle with deeper pink eyes. This charmer will cascade over a low stone wall or blanket a rock garden for reliable spring color
Phlox subulata performs well in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun. Prefers neutral to alkaline soils. Thrives in gritty, sandy loams. Superior soil drainage is the key to growing this plant well. Good heat and drought tolerance. Shear back after flowering to promote denser plants.
