Collection: Blue Phlox (Phlox divaricata)

Carpeting spring woodlands in a haze of lavender-blue, Blue Phlox unfurls its delicate petals just as winter fades. Native to the eastern half of North America—from Québec and Ontario south to Texas and Georgia—this early bloomer thrives in rich, moist soils beneath leafing hardwoods. Its lightly fragrant flowers offer vital nectar to butterflies and native bees emerging in spring, while its low growth helps stabilize forest soils. A graceful understory plant, Blue Phlox brings both color and life to shaded native gardens.
