Welcome to our new site
Phlox subulata ‘Candy Stripe’ is a charming evergreen perennial that creates a vibrant spring display with masses of candy pink and white striped flowers blanketing its dense, glossy green foliage. Forming a low, mat-like cushion, it spreads to create a beautiful carpet of colour, making it ideal for rock gardens, slopes, edging, or cascading gently over walls. Blooming in mid to late spring, it delivers weeks of eye-catching interest while remaining drought-tolerant once established. Easy to grow and low-maintenance, this hardy variety thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, while also being deer-resistant and attractive to butterflies, perfect for adding cheerful colour and texture to sunny garden spaces.

🌱 Perennial Care Guide (Gatineau/Ottawa)
All perennials at Nesbitt’s are suitable for hardiness zones 1 through 5. This means they are selected to withstand a wide range of colder climates and seasonal temperature variations in our region.
Perennials are expected to return year after year when planted in the right conditions. To support strong root development and long-term performance, use well-draining soil and enrich with compost or peat moss. Choosing the right plant for your garden’s light and soil will help ensure reliable growth and consistent blooms each season.
