A gem among miniature phlox, Phlox ‘Tiny Bugles’ forms dense, mossy mats of fine evergreen foliage that stay neat and tidy year-round. In late spring, it erupts into a profusion of small, flaring, trumpet-shaped blooms—nearly white with a tinge of lilac to pink—with a luminous quality that catches the light like polished glass. Each flower is delicately proportioned, giving the plant its fitting name.
Perfectly scaled for troughs, crevices, or the front edge of the rock garden, ‘Tiny Bugles’ thrives in full sun and gritty, sharply drained soil. It prefers moderate moisture during growth but dry conditions through winter, echoing the habits of its mountain kin.
Compact, floriferous, and long-lived, this is one of those rare plants that brings both subtlety and sparkle to the alpine garden. Hardy to USDA Zone 4.
