Candy Stripes Creeping Phlox Plant

Create carpets of color! This low-growing perennial crawls into the nooks and crannies of rock gardens and creates brilliant edges for paths and walkways. It even brightens up flower borders, spilling brilliant color over bed edges. The small, starry flowers stay in bloom a long time--from May through June. When the blooms close up for the season, you’ll still admire the evergreen foliage the rest of the summer. Plant growth habit is low and wide--growing just 6 inches tall and spreading 12 to 18 inches. These tolerant plants thrive in nearly any sunny spot--and can even tolerate short droughts.
