Phlox subulata 'Emerald Blue' - Emerald Blue Thrift

Market price from $6.15 to $11.75

Phlox subulata 'Emerald Blue' is a charismatic perennial marvel admired for its sea of vibrant, star-shaped lavender-blue blossoms. Often referred to as the Emerald Blue Thrift, this North American native graces gardens with its dense, needle-like evergreen foliage that forms a striking carpet even when not in bloom. Excelling in full sun and well-drained soil, this embodied hardiness spreads generously to cover 2-3 feet while standing a modest 4-6 inches tall. The Emerald Blue Thrift is a gardener's delight as it consumes minimal water and proves immune to the nibbling antics of deer. Moreover, it playfully beckons hummingbirds and butterflies, enhancing the ecosystem of your green space. Its robust nature makes it a fitting embellishment for rock gardens, borders or as a lush green blanket for erosion-prone slopes. With its stunning blooms, low maintenance and environmental benefits, it is more than just another green leaf on the ground - it brings a unique blend of beauty, resilience and practicality to the landscaped scene.
