Notes
'Fuller' woodland phlox (Phlox divaricata 'Fuller') is a perennial for borders, shade gardens, rock gardens, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It forms a clump 9 to 12 inches tall and wide. Cream white flowers open from early to late spring and attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
Pairs well with Regal Splendor hosta, Blue wood aster, Paul Scherer tulip, and Canada wild rye.
