Creeping Phlox are one of the best ways to naturalize a landscape. Traditional ground cover plants, creeping phlox are as popular today as they were decades ago.  Early to mid spring flowering perennial plants, the evergreen compact size of these perennial flowers makes it simple to add sporadically into the yard landscape for a welcoming appearance.

This week kicks off Greenwood Nursery’s annual ‘Buy 9 Creeping Phlox Get 1 Free’ Event Week. Choose from new and traditional phlox subulata flowers such as Apple Blossom, Candy Stripe, Emerald Blue, Pink, Red and white. Each variety sports its own unique color and petal structure.

Creeping Phlox are strong bloomers atop their creeping evergreen mounding growth habit. Choice companion plants are succulent plants, dianthus, sedum, hen & chicks, and shade perennials such as hostas. Creeping phlox are vigorous growers and ideal ground cover plants for difficult edges and rock gardens.

“Our annual phlox ‘Buy 9 — Get 1 Free’ has been a bit hit with customers for years” Notes Cheryl Jones, President of Greenwood Nursery, “Our Gardening Club Members watch the newsletter and email about when it’s going to start. It’s usually around the week of Valentines Day. We start shipping our phlox the second week in March and by late March into early April; customers are starting to see their plants in bloom. Creeping Phlox are hardy bloomers.”
