Versatile Use in a Cottage Garden
While Moss Phlox is often seen as a purely decorative plant, we discovered that it can be perfectly integrated into the design of a traditional cottage garden. Not only does it add a splash of color, but it also protects more delicate plants by acting as a natural mulch and helping retain soil moisture. Thanks to its ability to spread quickly, it can be used to outcompete weeds without becoming invasive.
Insights Into Our Future Plans
Looking ahead, we plan to strategically use Moss Phlox to line pathways and create transitions between flower beds and productive areas. Especially at the edges of our planting areas and on slopes where erosion is a concern, Moss Phlox offers a natural solution for soil retention. Another idea is to pair the plant with herbs like thyme or lavender, which share similar growing conditions and complement each other beautifully.
