Phlox Bedazzled Pink PP 32063 Dennstaedtia and Polianthes howardiiPhlox 'Bedazzled Pink' is the second in the early flowering Bedazzled series of Phlox bifida hybrids from Walters Gardens. Phlox 'Bedazzled Pink' starts flowering for us in mid winter, but several weeks later than Phlox 'Bedazzled Lavender', although it also hits its peak in late March Early April. Expect a 4" tall x 2' wide evergreen clump after two years. Good drainage is important for this drought tolerant native perennial.
