Creeping Phlox

Creeping Phlox is one of the showiest early flowers in the garden. They are a blanket of pastel blue, white and pink in April and May. As their name suggests, Creeping Phlox is an agressive spreading plant. The lavender flowers that are pictured above were started a few years ago from a single quart pot. Now, that has spread to an area five or six feet long. We have a half dozen of these plants in different colors that form a border defining the edge of the berm at One Love Farm. This post from two years ago tells a little more about the plantings on the berm.
