PHLOX subulata 'White Delight'
Creeping Phlox, Moss Phlox, White Delight Creeping Phlox
These mat-forming, evergreen perennials look like a snowdrift when in bloom. White delight moss phlox originates from eastern North America and is adapted to open, rocky locations. It has very fine, needle-like leaves of moss green and produces hundreds of large, five-petaled, tubular, white flowers in spring to early summer.
Sun-loving and vigorous, moss phlox prefers very well drained, average soil. It attracts butterflies and looks super planted along stone walls, border edges or in rock gardens.
