Phlox subulata 'Drummond's Pink'
Choose Drummond's Pink Creeping Phlox for a low, spreading spring carpet along sunny edges, stone walls, and slopes. The tradeoff: after bloom, it reads more like a green mat than a flowering perennial.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The spring bloom gives strong front-of-bed color, but the show is concentrated in one season. |
| Growth Rate | A | It fills in quickly for edging and small slopes when planted in suitable drainage. |
| Maintenance | B+ | A light trim after flowering helps keep it dense, and soggy soil is the main maintenance headache. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | A | Its low, spreading habit works well at edges without blocking nearby plants. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for front edges, stonework, and slopes where spring color matters more than winter coverage. Trim after bloom if you want the mat tighter.
| Mature Height | 0.25 ft |
|---|---|
| Mature Width | 1.5 ft |
| Hardiness Zones | 3a-9b |
| Spacing | 1 ft |
| Sun | Full Sun to Part Shade |
| Moisture | Dry to average |
| Growth Habit | Low, spreading, mat-forming groundcover |
No. It blooms heavily in spring; after that, expect foliage coverage, not constant flowers.
Yes, a light shearing after bloom keeps the mat tighter and cleaner.
Yes, on dry-to-average, well-drained slopes where you want low coverage.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
