Description
Blue Ribbons Woodland Phlox (Phlox divaricata 'Blue Ribbons' PP34928) is a variegated cultivar that was introduced in 2022 by Juniper Level Botanic Garden in North Carolina. It’s easy to maintain and has good resistance to heat, humidity, and coastal conditions. This compact perennial is a perfect groundcover for spring-blooming bulbs. It will fill in spaces in the garden where late-sprouting perennials take their time to emerge. When flowering is done, the foliage will maintain an attractive appearance. Woodland Phlox will spread over time, creating a lovely floral carpet. Native to Eastern North America, Woodland Phlox prefer part shade with moist, well-drained soil. Once established it is quite drought-tolerant and deer-resistant. Cut back after the first bloom to encourage a second bloom, and discourage pests such as spider mites or powdery mildew.
