Coral Eye Phlox, Alpine Phlox 'Coral Eye', Moss Phlox 'Coral Eye', Creeping Phlox 'Coral Eye'
Phlox subulata ‘Coral Eye’ (Creeping Phlox) is a pretty ground-hugging perennial boasting a profusion of large, starry, near-white flowers adorned with blush overtones and bright pink eyes. Blooming in late spring, the charming blossoms are produced in such great quantities that they literally cover the foliage of dark green, needle-like leaves. The healthy-looking foliage spreads evenly and consistently, making this creeping phlox variety a great choice for a late spring groundcover. Adding a splash of color for about 3-4 weeks, this moderately spreading phlox is perfect for rocky areas, slopes and flower borders.
