Description
(Hybrid Creeping Phlox) Have you ever considered your flowers to be the jewelry of your landscape? If so, you'll consider Phlox subulata Spring Bling® 'Ruby Riot' to be one of the finest, shiniest additions to your 'jewelry box'! This mid-late spring blooming gem boasts dense flower coverage and has the largest flower size of most other Phlox subulata types, reaching 1 to 1 1/2". The mass of flowers are an eye-catching shade of deep pink with a reddish undertone and a magenta eye. Standing 4-6 inches tall and spreading up to 28 inches wide, you do not need to worry about this phlox taking over your garden. The dense mounding habit of Spring Bling® 'Ruby Riot' helps it to look better later into the spring season than most creeping phlox. Grown best in full sun, this tough perennial has low water needs, being drought tolerant once established. A perfect plant to creep along garden borders as well as on hillsides. This easy to grow native perennial is attractive to butterflies and pollinators alike. Compared to the Phlox MOUNTAINSIDE™ series, Phlox subulata Spring Bling® 'Ruby Riot' blooms earlier, depending on the weather, has larger flowers, and denser flower coverage. Spring Bling® 'Ruby Riot' is a Proven Winners® Perennial.
