Description:
Phlox ovata is a charming groundcover native to the Appalachian region, stretching from Pennsylvania to Alabama. This creeping perennial is known for its pink flowers that bloom in spring, attracting hummingbirds to its 15-inch tall spikes. It forms a 1-foot wide patch of open rosettes with thick green leaves, making it a great choice for rock gardens. Phlox ovata prefers open sites where it is not crowded by other plants, thriving in the eastern United States' open montane woodlands.
