Wildflowers - Phlox Seeds
Phlox is a very popular family of wildflower seeds, and the native perennial types are often sold out because of the high demand. These ground cover seeds are a little tricky to grow, but will yield rare aromatic blooms for the patient. For those who are not quite as patient, we also have several annual varieties like the Red Drummond Phlox or the Mixed Annual Phlox. These are easy to grow, and put on a nice show in the first growing season. Please note that we do not have Creeping Phlox because it is not available in seed, and must be grown by vegetative propagation.

The first botanical records of annual phlox first appear in Hortus Elthamensis, botanist Johann Dillenius' published description of a famous experimental garden near London in 1732. This garden, under the care of famed English botanist William Sherard, contained several species of wild phlox from America. From that time on, gardeners seemed to agree with horticulturist Karl Foerster that "a garden without a phlox is a mistake." In the language of flowers, phlox symbolizes either the union of souls or sweet dreams. In Victorian times, a bouquet of phlox often indicated a timid proposal of marriage. The name "phlox" comes from the Greek word for "flame." The species name "drummondii" honors 19th century Scottish botanist Thomas Drummond, who traveled extensively throughout the United States collecting unique plants. These Drummond's phlox seeds came from Texas, where Drummond spent nearly two years.Starting at $2.50 USD
