There are many selections of Moss Phlox, all of them forming a low mound or cushion smothered by tiny flowers in late spring. This variety has dark green foliage with a showy display of white flowers, each with a tiny maroon-red eye. Clip plants lightly immediately after blooming to encourage a dense habit. Wonderful in the sunny rock garden, for edging, or in mixed containers. Requires good drainage. Drought tolerant, once established.
