''Phlox stolonifera'' (creeping phlox or moss phlox) is a herbaceous perennial plant spreading by stolons, native to woodland in and near the Appalachian Mountains from Pennsylvania south to northern Georgia. There are naturalized populations as far north as Québec.〔(Biota of North America Program 2014 county distribution map )〕 Flowers are pale purple, pink, or white, 2-2.5 cm (0.8-1.0 inches) across, with a five-lobed corolla and yellow stamens, borne on stems 15-25 cm (6-10 inches) tall. They lack the central band of color that is present in Phlox subulata.〔 Leaves are ovate. Those on creeping stems are 3-4.5 cm (1.2-1.8 inches) long and 1.8 cm (0.72 inches) broad, those on the erect flowering stems smaller, 2 cm (0.8 inches) long.〔(Sims, John. 1802.
