Phlox divaricata*
Phlox divaricata (Wild Blue Phlox, Woodland Phlox, or Wild Sweet William) is a herbaceous perennial valued for its lavender-blue flowers, native to forests and fields in eastern North America. This woodland species occurs in rich woods, fields and along streams. Loose clusters of slightly fragrant, tubular, lilac to rose to blue flowers (to 1.5" wide) with five, flat, notched, petal-like lobes that appear at the stem tips in spring. Stems are both hairy and sticky. Lance-shaped to elliptic leaves (to 2" long). It can form large colonies over time as leafy shoots spread along the ground rooting at the nodes.
We may carry the straight species, "Blue Moon", or "May Breeze", depending upon availability.
Prices listed are subject to change, based upon size change and availability.
We are a small local nursery with limited shipping capability. We will do our best to ship smaller material (usually 1 or 2 gallon), although we can sometimes ship larger plants with the pots removed.
We have some species that are not listed, as we have too few of them to make a full listing plausible. You can always inquire.
We will consider contract growing an order with appropriate advance notice and availability of seed, cuttings or lining out stock.
