Plant description
This gorgeous, low-growing phlox, forms a dense, cushion-like mound of slender, semi-evergreen, foliage, which in late spring and early summer, is smothered in purple-eyed, white (or occasionally blush pink) flowers. It looks great when allowed to meander through an alpine bed or rockery, but it's also ideal for filling gaps at the front of a sunny border. In very small gardens, it can be potted up for the balcony, windowsill or patio.

How to care for Phlox subulata Amazing Grace:
Give it a trim after the flowers have faded and lift and divide over-large clumps in autumn.
Please note:
This perennial is semi-evergreen so it can lose some of its leaves in winter. In colder regions or more exposed gardens, it may lose them all, but then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
