Create a bewitching carpet of bright pink blooms that welcomes spring with an explosion of color. Each notched, pink flower has a small, purple, star shaped eye. This dependable groundcover is 6-8 inches high, and when not in bloom the green, oval leaves form a low mat 3-4 inches above the ground. Bedazzled Pink Hybrid Spring Phlox spreads to 32 inches over time but its spread will never overwhelm other plants or become weedy. It is salt tolerant.
The plant has a mounding growth habit. It is deer resistant; its sweet flowers attract bees and butterflies. This Garden Phlox is a North American native plant. Some of the many ways you can use it in your garden include: as a ‘spiller’ in containers, in borders, as a tidy edging plant, in mass plantings, and as a groundcover. It makes a stunning waterfall of color when draped over a rock wall. It is equally at home in cottage gardens, rain gardens, and rock gardens. You can use it for erosion control on slopes.
Bedazzled Pink Phlox Care
Spread 2-4 inches of compost over an area that drains well and mix it into the top 12 inches of soil. Dig a planting hole the same depth and twice as wide as the pot. Turn the pot on its side and slide out the root ball. Set it in the hole with the crown a little above the surrounding grade. Backfill the hole and mulch with pine needles. Water so the soil is moist not sopping wet. It will need 1inch of water each week if it doesn’t rain. Add a balanced fertilizer (10-10-10) to the soil surrounding the plant every spring. Be sure it is in a location of full sun. It thrives in gritty alkaline soil but tolerates average or poor soil with an acidic or neutral pH.
Trim back lightly when the phlox has finished flowering for the best appearance. Remove any dead stems that build up.
Bedazzled Pink Phlox Spacing
Plant multiple phlox plants in an area for a stunning effect. Space them 32-36 inches apart. Good companion plants are Euphorbia, Dianthus, Columbine, and Bachelor’s Button.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
