Plant Overview

Red Moss Phlox is a stunning ground cover perennial that creates a vibrant carpet of crimson blooms in spring. This low-growing plant forms dense mats of needle-like foliage that becomes completely covered with striking red flowers, creating a spectacular display in rock gardens, along borders, or cascading over walls.

Plant Information

Plant Care

Red Moss Phlox is remarkably easy to maintain and drought-tolerant once established. Regular trimming after flowering helps maintain its compact shape and may encourage a second bloom. Remove dead foliage in late winter to promote healthy spring growth. Apply a light fertilizer in early spring to support vigorous blooming.

Planting Instructions

Plant in spring or fall, spacing plants 15-18 inches apart. Dig holes twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Place plant at the same level it was growing in the container, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly. Add a layer of mulch around the plant, keeping it away from the crown to prevent rot.
