Herald spring with the beauty of our Carefree Creeping Phlox Collection. In early spring, the dense mats of fine-textured bright green foliage burst into glorious bloom, with the foliage barely visible beneath the blanket of star-shaped flowers. Blooming for several weeks each spring, just when we're shaking off our winter coats, Creeping Phlox are carefree, hardy groundcovers that spread without becoming too aggressive. They're also an important early source of nectar for pollinators.
Creeping Phlox are perfect for complementing taller perennials such as Bearded Iris, Siberian Iris, or Garden Phlox, and lovely paired with taller spring-blooming bulbs such as Daffodils and Tulips. Deer resistant and drought tolerant once established.
*Plants are subject to change due to availability. If we make substitutions, we feature plants with similar attributes suitable to the collection design.

"These little babies are thriving!! They didn't bloom the first year but they have grown to twice their original size and have soo many beautiful blooms! I can't wait to see what they will become. Phlox are great for the dry, rocky ground i have at my house."
"Again healthy but small plant for the money."
"I am the other reviewer that got plants in the fall of 2022. I was so happy I ordered 1 more collection for spring. The order I got in spring was healthy and the plants are still alive in June, however they were definitely smaller than the ones I got in the fall. My guess is that they were not allowed to grow as long as the other ones. would I still order again? yeah, I love this collection, All plants but one survived the winter (one was killed by a squirrel, nothing to do with the american meadows). and I even got a few flowers :)."
"Plants arrived fast and very healthy. They are down in the ground on Oct 1st. Will update next year"
