Moss Phlox

13 May 2010 200
Moss Phlox (Phlox hoodii) is a native, semi-woody plant that grows on dry, eroded slopes and prairie grasslands. These tiny wildflowers, which are white to pale blue, are only 8-14 mm across, and bloom May-June. Very easy to miss them when out on a walk. This one was photographed last week at the Nodwell Sanctuary, south east of Calgary.
