Phlox 'Bedazzled Pink' PP32063

Bedazzled Series

Phlox 'Bedazzled Pink' Hybrid Spring Phlox

Common Name: Hybrid Spring Phlox

It's easy to see how this series got its name when they explode into bloom come mid spring. Like a party for your garden, the Bedazzled series members produced star-shaped, notched flowers that cover a rounded, spreading habit. These bloom a few days to a week before Phlox subulata, depending on the weather. These will be moderate growers the first year in the garden, but will become a groundcover with age.

'Bedazzled Pink' has bright, medium pink flowers with a small, dark purple star-shaped eye.

Creeping phlox is a versatile, easy to grow groundcover for full sun. Gritty, neutral soils are prefered and good drainage is essential. It's a good idea to shear this plant back and clean up any dead foliage in early summer, just after it's finished blooming. This will produce denser foliage and will encourage it to rebloom. Divisions can be made every few years in summer.
