Phlox subulata 'Candy Stripe' syn. Phlox subulata 'Tamaongalei', Phlox subulata 'Mikado', Phlox subulata 'Kimono'

Morning everyone. I want to tidy the moss phlox up as it’s taking over the rockery but twice now I have been thwarted by my family of frogs who seem to have taken up residency 🐸 #wildlifewednesday #frog #moss-phlox-candy-stripe

Morning Jane. That would have startled me somewhat ....nice to see though 👋😃🐸

It startled me too. This is one of the babies, one of the adults (mother presumably) was in there too 🐸 @flof1952

Best get your bicycle clips on Jane 🐸 I always have a fear of them going up my trouser legs 🤣

Morning Jane…..🐸

Morning Jane .. snap 🤣😉☺️🐸

You are lucky I don't seem to get frogs in the garden

I wish you hadn't put that picture in my head 😂😳🐸 @debs69

Morning Elaine 👋 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

Oh yes 😂🐸 @juliesgarden

I think it’s an irrational fear 😧 of mine Jane @pelly 😁

They seem to like it here Joan and needless to say they're very welcome 🐸 @joannie.a

Morning everyone. My #moss-phlox-candy-stripe has gone crazy, I was going to split it earlier in the year but circumstances prevented me from getting it done. It looks gorgeous though 💗

Morning Jane .. wow that’s beautiful .. enjoy its splendour before you split it 🩷🩷

Thanks Julie, oh I will 💗 @juliesgarden

It is beautiful, it must be a good year for them because I noticed mine have gone crazy this spring

Beautiful phlox Jane 👏💕

Oh yes, I remember you posting yours Joan 🌸 @joannie.a

Thanks very much Shona 🩷 @sho47

Looks fabulous jane x

Thanks very much Lorna, it’s just so pretty 🌸 @struddles

@pelly phlox looks amazing Jane l bet you are glad you dident separate it. 👏

I am Gwen, thank you but I must do it this year as it’s taking over 😂 @gwenniemom

The moss phlox is looking beautiful now it's fully open 🌸 #moss-phlox-candy-stripe

Wow. That's pretty

Gorgeous 🌸🌸🌸

Thanks very much Charlotte and Enid. It gets better every year 🌸@charlotte @godfreye

That's fabulous 🌸

Thanks, it’s grown so much in two years 🌸 @hebelover

Really lovely 🌸🌸🌸

Thanks very much 🌸 @Auricula

Thanks Karen, I absolutely adore it 🌸 @KOutdoors

Morning everyone, the moss phlox is looking pretty in the little rockery 🌸. Have a super day #moss-phlox-candy-stripe

Morning Jane 🌸 Thats a pretty one

Morning Jason, it was a gift, not something I would have thought of buying but I love it 💗 @hebelover

Not heard of that before (usually kiss of death to phlox), it looks lovely🌸

Morning . So pretty 💗

Morning Jane .. oh that’s pretty 🌸

I’ve seen it often in the plant catalogues that arrive through the letter box far too often 🙄 but I’d never thought to buy it. I’m glad I’ve got it now though 🌸 @Auricula

Morning Clare and Julie, thanks, you can see why it’s often called carpet phlox. It looks even better when it’s fully open 💗 @clare2611 @juliesgarden

Morning Jane 👋 that’s so pretty. Do you think it would work between paving stones where the mortar has gone? Not to walk on but to soften the paving?

Morning Jane 🙋🏽‍♂️ (<-me with my tan 😉) that is gorgeous 😍

Morning Jane ….promised myself this but never got round to it….🌸

Morning, they are such pretty plants, I now have a few different ones

Thanks Eileen 💗 @emch

So pretty 💞

Thanks, I love it 💕 @lovemygarden65

That is lovely, mine got clobbered by the winter and not sure it is going to survive.

Gorgeous little flowers

Such pretty flowers. Candy stripe is the perfect name 💗🤍💗

Great shot Jane!💘😍

Oh no, I hope it does 🤞🤞🤞 @joannie.a

Thanks Alan, I think so too 💞 @alan1111

Thanks Angela, I think it is too 💕 @italydiva

The moss phlox is flowering in my new rockery, it's such a sweet little flower #moss-phlox-candy-stripe #newtome 💕

Wow i like that! I grew 9 bare root 'echinacea' last year that turned out to be pink moss phlox. Instead of binning them I donated them to raise money for charity earlier this year. 'Cos I'm nice like that 😀

Oh dear, there's not much difference between ecihnacea and moss phlox is there Graham 🙄😂😂😂 good on you for donating them to charity 👍

😂😂 no not much at all! @pelly if you looked to the horizon, you could have seen the cloud of steam coming out of my ears when I found out! Most spare plants, divisions or whatever go to raise money for people who need it, needed more than ever at a time like this ☺👍👍

So pretty 💕

Thanks Sue, it's a new one for me 💖 @suerichards
