Phlox subulata ‘Drummond’s Pink’
(Creeping Phlox)

‘Drummond’s Pink’ produces large, rich rose-pink flowers that spread across a low mat of foliage in mid to late spring. The dense growth creates a colorful carpet while staying only a few inches tall.

Its spreading habit makes it especially useful along garden edges, on slopes, in rock gardens, or cascading over walls. It can also be planted as a flowering groundcover where broad areas of spring color are wanted.

This dependable creeping phlox grows well in full sun to part shade and provides useful early-season color with minimal maintenance once established.
