Phlox subulata, Creeping Phlox, Amazing Grace
No foot traffic on the white carpet! This resilient ground cover takes hold so well, it is an ideal choice for a low mat of color along borders, under taller plantings in garden beds, on slopes, and in places where it can spill over rocks.
Perovskia Little Lace, Russian Sage, Container Size: 4.5″

Phlox subulata, Emerald Pink, Creeping Phlox, Moss Phlox
Care: Moss Phlox, or Creeping Phlox, likes a soil that is rich in humus. The soil must drain well so that the plant is not bothered by wet feet. If no new blooms appear, the shearing will ensure good, fresh growth of foliage.
Phlox subulata, Candy Stripe, Creeping Phlox, Moss Pinks
