Adored by pollinators, Phlox 'Woodlander Lilac' enhances any garden with its dynamic color and life.

This herbaceous plant boasts a mounded and spreading habit, featuring linear to awl-shaped leaves that quickly fill in empty spaces, making it an ideal ground cover .

Phlox 'Woodlander Lilac' thrives in a variety of conditions, from full sun to partial shade, and benefits from a period of vernalization for optimal flowering.
