Creeping Phlox

With its mat-forming nature and attractive color options, the Creeping Phlox makes it a must-have for many garden landscapes. Known by its scientific name Phlox Stolonifera, this herbaceous plant is a relatively moderate-growing ground cover that can flourish in various conditions, including crevices in stone walls and rock gardens. This perennial can be found in many different color variations, such as pink, red, purple, blue, and white.

Creeping Phlox looks great on hills or banks

A member of the Polemoniaceae botanical family, you may hear this plant referred to as Moss Phlox or even Star Rock Phlox. This plant will reach a mature size of up to one foot tall by about one and a half feet wide. It can grow individually. However, this plant thrives in large colonies as it can transform any landscape.

Native to North America, this perennial features green needle-like foliage. This adds a unique texture to any garden when this plant isn't in bloom. Once the Creeping Phlox experiences late spring to early summer, it will unleash a plethora of blooms. This mat-forming plant grows in large clusters, each flower with five petals that reach about one inch across.

One unique aspect of this herbaceous plant is it's highly fragrant during the summer months. It lets off a distinctive cannabis-like aroma. This plant will attract butterflies, bees, and other pollinators during the blooming season. This delightful carpeting plant is ideal for slopes, rock gardens, and even the front of a border.

Whenever this hardy plant reaches the end of its blooming season, it will reveal its moss-like foliage again until winter's frost sets in. This plant is resistant to both rabbits and deer. This small starry plant will be sure to add splashes of color to any landscaping design.
