How do we use your location?
Knowing your location helps us recommend plants that will thrive in your climate, based on your Growing Zone.
Sand Phlox is a spring-blooming perennial that excels in dry, well-drained conditions. Growing just 4–6 inches tall, it forms a soft mat of fragrant, starry flowers in blue and white that attract butterflies and soften hard edges in rock gardens or sloped spaces.
This Central U.S. native tolerates drought, poor soil, and full sun with ease, making it an excellent choice for erosion control or low-care groundcover. Sand Phlox naturalizes well in sunny borders or meadowscaping designs that call for early-season interest and strong resilience.
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.
