It may look like a winter storm blew through after the Snowflakes Moss Phlox begins to bloom. This hardy plant is a heavy bloomer and will be consistently covered in white flowers throughout the spring. The tiny flowers have five heart-shaped petals that surround yellow centers. The flowers bloom on thin, branched stems with dark green foliage, and the growth is so dense that while blooming, the flowers will be the only part of the plant that is visible.

Snowflakes Moss Phlox is a compact, upright perennial. This variety makes a wonderful ground cover, and the reaching stems trail naturally when planted in a raised bed or container. Plant in a rock garden for a soft texture between the hardscape or feature as a filler in a bed or mass planting. Grow this hardy plant as a perennial in USDA zones 3 through 8.

Snowflakes Moss Phlox Care

Don’t worry about the Snowflakes Moss Phlox melting because this plant thrives in full sun to part shade. Afternoon shade is preferred in warm climates. Moist, well-drained soil with high organic content is best. Let the top few inches of soil dry out before watering this perennial. Feed the Phlox using a balanced fertilizer during the early spring.

If left alone, the plant can become leggy. If a more manicured look is preferred, trim up to one-third of the growth after the flowers fade. Phlox is clump-forming, and this plant can be divided as needed every few years.

Snowflakes Moss Phlox Spacing

Snowflakes Moss Phlox will reach 3 to 6 inches tall and spread out 2 to 3 feet. Space this cultivar 2 to 3 feet apart for a continuous bed of flowering phlox across the garden.

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. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

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). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

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.
