Woodland Secrets by Lynn Sprowl
Phlox divaricata is known by several common names including Woodland Phlox, Wild Blue Phlox, and Wild Sweet William. Woodland Wild Blue Phlox is one of our favorite spring flowers often found along streams and in open woods. Phlox divaricata forms clumps 12 inches tall covered with delicate 1.5 inch rosy-lavender to soft pink flowers. Phlox divaricata is a favorite in the wild garden due to its attractive flowers in early spring that require little or no maintenance. Woodland Phlox (Wild Sweet William) is spectacular as a mass in an open woodland, perfect for the border of a shade garden, or naturalized in sweeps at the base of large trees. Phlox divaricata prefers moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil and high open shade and accepts sunny conditions with moisture but will go dormant in drought conditions.
Wild Phlox divaricata Woodland Phlox can be used as an showy ground cover that will naturalize and has attractive fragrant flowers attracting butterflies and hummingbirds.
