The Secret Garden has an outstanding display of Phlox subulata or Alpine Phlox. It is a prostrate groundcover which produces masses of star-shaped flowers in white and shades of lavender, pink or purple in spring. It makes a stunning display for up to 4 weeks creating blankets of intense colour throughout the garden. It is also an excellent weed suppressing ground cover.
