About the Product

Baby Doll Pink is a short, early-blooming phlox, only about a foot tall, with bright pink flowers ringed by a white halo. Blooms cover the top of the dark green foliage starting in early summer.

Its size makes it easy to tuck into small spaces and containers. Shear the plant back nearly to the ground after the first flush and it will bloom again. The fragrant flowers attract butterflies, hummingbirds and bees.

What it looks like

Flat, five-petaled flowers about 1 inch across in bright pink, each with a white halo around a small darker eye, are grouped in rounded clusters at the tops of the stems. The clusters are dense enough to form a solid mass of color. Leaves are lance-shaped, smooth and dark green, arranged in pairs along upright stems. The plant forms a compact, upright clump about 12 to 16 inches tall and 14 to 16 inches wide. At peak bloom the clump is capped with a continuous layer of pink-and-white flowers.

Growing it with lavender

This phlox likes sun but wants richer soil and more regular water than lavender, so give it a spot at the front of a nearby cottage bed, where its pink flowers bloom in step with the lavender.

Care

Plant in full sun to part shade in average to fertile, well-drained soil with regular water. Hardy in zones 4-8. After the first bloom, shear the stems back nearly to the ground to encourage a second round of flowers.

How to grow Baby Doll Pink

Phlox · Phlox

Two very different plants: garden phlox (P. paniculata) is a tall summer bloomer that wants sun, rich moist soil and good air flow; creeping phlox (P. subulata) is a spring groundcover for sun and lean, well-drained soil.

Hardy in zones 4a–8b

Spring or early fall.

When it arrives

Your plug tray

Pot 72-cell plugs into 4-inch pots or plant out after hardening off. Creeping phlox plugs can go straight into the ground 12 inches apart to knit into a mat. Keep moist until rooted.

When to plant

Spring or early fall.

How deep

Plant at the same depth as in the plug or with the bare-root crown just at soil level.

Spacing

Garden phlox 18–24 inches for air flow; creeping phlox 12–18 inches for a mat.

Soil

Garden phlox: rich, moist loam. Creeping phlox: sandy or gravelly, well-drained soil. · pH 5.5–7.5

Fix-it tip: Add compost for garden phlox. For creeping phlox, add grit to heavy clay or plant on slopes and walls so it never stays wet.

Sun

Full sun (tolerates light part shade).

Garden phlox in shade gets more mildew and fewer flowers; creeping phlox blooms best in full sun.

Don’t give up on it

Is it alive? What spring looks like

Creeping phlox stays evergreen and flowers in early to mid-spring. Garden phlox emerges from the crown in mid-spring as reddish shoots and blooms in mid to late summer.
