Description

Low maintenance, early to bloom, and with a playhouse of colour, how could you not love this Creeping Phlox Collection?

Grow these dainty evergreen perennials for an easy, yet impressive, spring garden of colour, even perfect for planting in drifts for a carpet of colour through April and into May, or dotting around to fill empty gaps and keep those pesky weeds at bay.

With an abundance of five-petalled star-like flowers and distinctive needle-like leaves, each plant will spread to 60cm across, even thriving in rock gardens or when used as path and border edging. Also known as 'Creeping Moss Phlox', you can grow these in mixed borders in full sun, or in all manner of containers - they really are plants for many occasions.

As well as being a valuable weed suppressant, Carpet Phlox is a low or no maintenance hardy plant that needs very little aftercare once planted, perfect for those new to gardening or with little time on their hands.

This collection is made up of 4 different varieties:

  • 1 x 'Candy Stripe' - Pink with white stripes
  • 2 x 'Emerald Cushion Blue' - Pale lavender blue
  • 2 x 'McDaniel's Cushion' - Bright pink
  • 1 x 'White Delight' - Pure white

Supplied as collection of six plug plants, ready to pot on or plant out.

Top Tips
Clip plants lightly immediately after blooming to encourage dense growth.
Care Information
  • Requires good drainage to thrive, but will become drought tolerant once established.
  • Feed and water regularly, particularly during prolonged periods of dry weather, and until the young Phlox plants are fully established.
  • For plants supplied in autumn, they are best potted up and allowed to grow on before planting out in spring.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
