Drummond’s Pink Creeping Phlox 1 Live Plant – Phlox subulata ‘Drummond’s Pink’ – 1 Gallon Pot

Drummond’s Pink Creeping Phlox (Phlox subulata ‘Drummond’s Pink’) is a low-growing, mat-forming perennial known for its abundant bright pink flowers and fine-textured evergreen foliage. In spring, clusters of star-shaped blossoms cover the spreading stems, creating a colorful carpet that adds seasonal interest to garden beds, slopes, and rock gardens.

This creeping phlox cultivar develops a dense, spreading habit with narrow, needle-like green leaves that provide groundcover between flowering periods. Its trailing stems are particularly attractive along stone walls, pathway edges, and raised planting beds, where they can soften hard landscape features. Spring flowers also provide nectar for visiting pollinators.

This listing includes one live Drummond’s Pink Creeping Phlox in a 1 gallon nursery pot. The plant performs best in full sun and prefers well-drained soil with low to moderate moisture requirements once established. Its compact, spreading habit makes it suitable for groundcover plantings and outdoor containers.
