Phlox subulata ‘Eye Caramba’

Description

Common name: Creeping Phlox, Spring Phlox

This is a brand new introduction. We fell in love with this as soon as we saw it in bloom. Striking Medium pink flowers with a red eye. A richer pink than ‘Eye Candy’.

Creeping phlox is a low-growing species which forms a carpet-like mat no taller than 6″. This popular little perennial is best utilized in rocky areas, on slopes, and in flower borders. Mature plants should be trimmed after blooming to keep them tidy.
