'Phlox divaricata'
Blue phlox, a.k.a., wild sweet William, is a semiwoody, low spreading, mat forming ground cover native to the Midwest. Clothed in deep green leaves, it produces a striking show of 1-inch wide, 5-parted, violet-blue to lavender, mildly fragrant flowers from midspring to early summer. Ideal for large mass plantings, Blue phlox adds vibrant color and texture to your landscape while providing reliable ground coverage.  Enhance your outdoor living space with the natural charm and lasting appeal of Blue phlox.
