Phlox divaricata 'Blue Moon' (Woodland Phlox) Unity Grown

Phlox divaricata 'Blue Moon' is an attractive woodland phlox cultivar perfect for shady areas. Noted for its showy, fragrant, violet-blue flowers in the spring, 'Blue Moon' grows to a mature height of only 12-18" and performs best in part to full-shade locations. Easily naturalized in woodland gardens, low maintenance, and highly attractive to wide variety of pollinators and hummingbirds, this woodland phlox selection is a great choice to add attractive powder blue hues to the home garden or into more natural surroundings.

Phlox divaricata 'Blue Moon' grows best in moist but well-drained conditions, and is resistant to deer grazing and high amounts of shade. Slowly spreading overtime via rhizomatic roots, 'Blue Moon' is a great choice for naturalized plantings, and rosettes of low-growing leaves are semi-evergreen and add winter interest in milder climates.

Beyond its obvious aesthetic and ecological benefit, the 'Blue Moon' culltivar is also recognized as a Mt. Cuba Top Performer in the category of Best Phlox for Shade, receiving a score of 3.5 out of 5 for its consistency and ease of growth in a variety of locations.
