Emerald Blue Creeping Phlox
'Blue Emerald' creates a fantastic carpet of color in the garden. Growing only 6" tall, this variety is smothered in lavender-blue, star shaped flowers that brings a wonderful texture to the landscape. More heat tolerant than regular garden phlox, this attractive ground cover is best utilized in rock gardens, on slopes, and as a border in flower beds.
