Care:
Creeping Phlox likes a variety of well-draining soils; there is no need to worry about soil pH. When planting, place a little compost up near the plant to give it the light nutrients it needs, or use a diluted fertilizer before bloom and after to keep your Creeping Phlox healthy. Shearing as a method of deadheading spent blooms is helpful and may encourage late-season blooms, though this should not be expected. Shearing again in fall also helps this plant.
