Creeping Phlox Question?

We want to get two different types of Creeping Phlox. However, we'd like the 2 flowers to intermix so it looks like a plant with 2 different flowers, and not to have one flower for 16 inches, then the other flower. Will these grow together or no?

Creeping Phlox Question?
I love creeping phlox and have been growing them for over 30 years. They will grow at different paces depending a lot on your soil. They see to like it a little sandy and grow faster there.





If you want to see quicker color combining, you might try breaking the plants in half then mixing the colors and planting them close together. So instead of one big clump of one color, you get a big clump of two colors, then sixteen inches or so apart, you plant another clump of the two colors etc. (You will do need to space them 16 inches apart.)
Reply:Sure, they will grow together!
