This wonderful, short annual phlox species was discovered in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area by Thomas Drummond, an English plant explorer in 1835. It occurs in nature in reds, pinks and whites, but seed available for today’s meadows is usually all red. The native species has been hybridized heavily into a rainbow of various annual phlox colors. (Not to be confused with creeping phlox, a perennial species.) Drummond phlox today is established along sandy roadsides all the way from Canada into central Florida. A great meadow plant.

"I have planted Drummond Phlox before in a border and decided to try these from seed. The seeds germinated well and a significant amount of the plants survived to a "thinning" stage. Unfortunately, as they bloomed there were white, pink, magenta and only a very few red flowers."
"I ordered Red Phlox but they are multi-colored. They turned out spectacular. It turned out prettier than if they would have been all the same color. Love these Phlox at curbside mailbox. Receiving lots of compliments from neighbors."
"They have high rate of germination. Think everyone germinated. Mine came in a beautiful shade of pinks red and white. Small size, very rich long lasting flowers. Gorgeous!!!"
"All I have to do is throw the seeds in garden areas with sun and they do the rest, and put on a show."
"The seeds all come up and look gorgeous and often reseed but I order more anyway they are to pretty not to"
"These are just starting to come up and I love them. They are vibrant in color and dainty , showing up in-between bulbs where I planted them. I can't wait to see what they will do."
"I use Texas natives in the front yard and D. Phlox looks wonderful wiht bluebonnets and with low spreading plants like black-foot daisy and calyophus (sun drops). They appear to seed pretty readily and they last longer than bluebonnets and will pop up through out the summer. Great in areas when you don't want really tall massing natives, like mexican hat or blanket flower. I'm planing on purchasing more !"
