Phlox stolonifera


Phlox stolonifera is an herbaceous, stoloniferous, perennial, plant that is native to woodlands in the vicinity of the Appalachian Mountains from Pennsylvania south to northern Georgia in the United States. Naturalized populations occur as far north as Québec, Canada.
Its flowers are pale purple, pink, or white; in diameter; with a five-lobed corolla and yellow stamens; and borne on stems that are tall. They lack the central band of color that is present in the flowers of Phlox subulata.
The leaves are ovate. Those on creeping stems are long and broad, and those on the erect flowering stems are smaller, long.
