MU Physostegia, Vivid 
PHLOX SUBULATA - Moss or Mountain Pinks 
An early spring-flowering type with pretty, mosslike, evergreen foliage, 
which, during the flowering season, in April and May, is hidden under 
the masses of bloom. An excellent plant for the rockery, the border, 
and invaluable for carpeting the ground or covering graves. 
Culture. All Phlox Subulata should be grown in full sun. In shade they 
will die within a year. The soil should be dry and sandy and not too 
rich. Dig and replant every fourth year to prevent them from getting 
weedy. Plant in fall or early spring, 8 inches apart.
