Creeping Phlox

In most gardens, trees, shrubs and turf form the backdrop or foundation of the landscape. Ideally, these elements work together with herbaceous perennials and annuals to form a complete, dynamic appearance. More typically, though, perennials and annuals do the decorator's work, adding interest and sprucing up an otherwise monochromatic landscape. Their diversity and versatility allow them to do their job well in this respect - both perennials and annuals offer a wide range of colors, sizes and bloom periods.
