Sweet Seduction Pink Creeping Phlox (Phlox stolonifera 'Sweet Seduction Pink')

Sweet Seduction Pink Creeping Phlox (Phlox stolonifera 'Sweet Seduction Pink') is a low-growing, spreading perennial known for its soft pink blooms and dense, evergreen foliage. This spring-blooming variety adds gentle color, ground cover, and a delicate focal point to woodland gardens, shaded borders, and pathways.

Distinctive Features

Sweet Seduction Pink forms a lush, mat-like ground cover with semi-evergreen foliage that provides year-round texture. In mid to late spring, it bursts into bloom with masses of soft pink, star-shaped flowers, creating a romantic and elegant carpet of color in shaded spaces. The nectar-rich blooms attract early pollinators like bees and butterflies.

Drought-tolerant once established, it is well-suited to low-maintenance landscapes.
