Design Tips

Prairie Phlox is a short flower for massing on border or putting in large drifts through the middle of a garden. Prairie Phlox (Phlox pilosa) is clump forming and doesn’t spread. Rabbits like it, so it helps to plant a lot of it so that they can’t possibly eat it all.

Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!
