If a punch of vibrant pink color is what you are seeking, search no more. Drummond's Pink will not only paint your garden in warm, inviting strawberry foam hues, she'll also call butterflies and hummingbirds to come to the party. Drummond's Pink's creeping habit makes it perfect for plantings over walls and in cracks. In addition to being tolerant of clay or sand in its soil, this Phlox variety thrives in polluted and windy conditions making her a wonderful option for urban gardeners.
General information about Phlox:
Any gardener who has used Creeping Phlox once will insist on planting again and again.
The blanket of delicate, colorful flowers that greet you every spring can only be described as perfectly pretty year after year.
A versatile, easy-to-grow groundcover that forms a dense carpet-like mat
no taller than six inches,
Phlox proves excellent for
erosion control
on
slopes
and in plantings of any size.
She
cascades
like billows of cloth over curbs, drapes down walls, and huddles over hanging baskets.
Her flowers blanket slopes all across the south in spring, but her wispy sage
evergreen
foliage is also an undeniable feature with their tell-tale linear growth.
Though she does prefer
full sun
for best
blooms,
she will also do well in
partial sun.
While she puts up with a
variety of soil conditions,
ideally she wants well-drained soil and
tolerates drought
(does not tolerate too much moisture).
Phlox makes a good
edging
plant for difficult locations including rock gardens.
She comes in a variety of colors, so you’re sure to find the perfect shade for your garden.
Gardener Tips
Consider placing multiple plants in one area for quick filling, then in 2-3 growing seasons, you can easily divide this plant in early spring and use her in other areas.
Try planting Phlox with bulbs such as tulips and daffodils for a gorgeous spring display.
Try planting Phlox as a
border
for herb gardens where she will blanket the earth beneath taller growers such as basil, chives and lavender while not disturbing their productivity.

I needed a good way to cover a lage area of our hll - the phlox arrived in a healthy looking way and I am hopeful the 24 plants will cover the hill within no time.

Two well packed boxes arrived and the plants were in perfect condition. In fact, I had to leave them in the box unopened for two days after tier arrival. They were moist and green and perky.
