Description 'Emerald Blue' creeping phlox (Phlox subulata) delightfully welcomes spring with lush foliage and hundreds of blooms. This ground cover forms a low-growing carpet that spreads vigorously and adds color year-round. The flowers are so abundant in the spring; you can barely see the foliage underneath! Delicate, star-shaped blue flowers are fragrant and adored by butterflies. Though the flowers look delicate, this plant certainly is not! It's highly adaptable and able to thrive in challenging sites, including gravelly soil. Plus, it's unbothered by deer. Try planting in rocky areas, on steep slopes, or as a border, and it won't disappoint! Details Botanical name: Phlox subulata 'Blue Emerald'
