Phlox

Phlox (pronounced “floks,” from Greek for “flame”) refers to a genus of popular flowering plants, known for their vibrant, often fragrant, clustered blooms in colors like pink, purple, white, and blue, used in borders, rock gardens, and containers, with popular types including Garden Phlox (Phlox paniculata) and Creeping Phlox (Phlox subulata). These hardy perennials and annuals thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, attracting pollinators and adding color to gardens from spring through fall, while also being a non-toxic, pet-friendly choice.
