Moss phlox

Moss phlox make excellent plants for the rock garden or alpine trough. They have a spreading evergreen growth habit that looks superb trained over low walls and rocks. 'Thefi' is an unusual variety with small dark green leaves and very pale blue, star-shaped flowers. To get the best results, plant in a bright, sunny position, with a gritty, free-draining soil. Plants require little attention but will benefit from an occaisional trim to keep them tidy.
