Creeping phlox is a sure sign that spring is underway. These gorgeous ground covers are often seen flowing over the sides of retaining walls and filling the foreground of garden beds. This hybrid pink creeping phlox becomes covered in pink blooms and grows low to the ground even in rocky soils. It has a deep red eye that brings a nice balance to the true pink coloration of the flowers.

Phlox 'Pink Profusion'
Creeping phlox is an easy to grow ground cover than can tolerate poor, alkaline and rocky soil. Good drainage is important for phlox and it is advised to cut it back in summer, just after bloom, to promote dense growth and refresh the plant. Phlox will continue to spread and can be easily subdivided and replanted in the summer.
