Phlox Daniels Cushion

Transform dry banks, stone walls, and rocky patches into vibrant blankets of colour with this RHS Award Winning Perennial Phlox, one of the easiest alpines to grow, it forms a tight, carpet of narrow, needle shaped, dark green foliage that remains evergreen to provide year round interest. While vigorous, it is very well-behaved and its trailing habit makes it exceptionally attractive when spilling over the edges of raised beds or retaining walls. It is remarkably low-maintenance, drought-tolerant once roots are established, and functions as a reliable weed suppressant. It's true beauty lies in the vibrant pink flowers that completely cover the plant in Sping anfd Summer. While its main, most spectacular flush of flowers occur in mid-spring to early summer, it frequently produces a lighter, secondary flush of blooms in September as the cooler autumn weather arrives, however I would ensure the plant doesn't completely parch during hot, dry summer months! Alpine phlox grows well in most soils that are free draining, ideal for alpine troughs, rockeries, low walls or front of border planting.
