Creeping Blue Phlox
Phlox subulata 'Emerald Blue'Creeping Blue Phlox spreads close to the ground, covering surfaces with a smooth layer of blue blooms. The flowers sit tightly over the foliage, creating a continuous blanket rather than individual standout blooms. Its growth follows the contours of the planting area, softening edges and filling gaps naturally. Reaching about 4 to 6 inches tall and spreading 12 to 24 inches wide at maturity, it forms a low, even presence that works well in borders, edging, and groundcover plantings.
- Flowering perennial
- Soft blue blooms
- Low, spreading growth habit
- Moderate growth rate
- Excellent for borders, edging, and groundcover plantings
Creeping Blue Phlox thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 3 through 9, it provides cool seasonal color and a smooth, carpet-like finish in Texas landscapes.
