Zone: 3EMERALD PINK CREEPING PHLOX
Phlox subulata 'Emerald Pink' is a classic and highly reliable creeping phlox, prized for its exceptionally dense, needle-like foliage that maintains a rich, "emerald" green color throughout the year. In mid-to-late spring, the plant is completely transformed as it becomes smothered in a blanket of vibrant, bright pink flowers. 'Emerald Pink' Phlox is known for its neat, mounded growth habit and vigorous spreading nature, making it a staple choice for suppressing weeds on sunny slopes, edging garden paths, or creating a lush, flowering carpet in rock gardens.
Phlox 'Emerald Pink' maintains its signature lush look by being in a location that receives full sun, which is critical for achieving a dense floral display and keeping the foliage tight. It thrives in lean, gritty, and exceptionally well-drained soil; like most subulata types, it prefers average, gritty soil over rich ground, which can cause the plant to become leggy. Once established, it is remarkably drought-tolerant and stands up well to the heat and salt spray typical of roadside or sidewalk plantings. After the spring bloom has finished, a light shearing of the foliage will help maintain its compact, mounded shape and encourage fresh green growth that remains attractive through the winter months.
