I have that too, I'm drawing a blank right now on the name. I'm going to try to look it up.

Re: flower experts please help!

its like a low growing pine with soft needles that flowers. stays green all year long and then purple flowers in the spring


the first pick shows it the best. we just split it because we are starting to redo the beds and i wanted it to be everywhere!! last year it was a tiny tiny spot and this year it was huge.

Phlox. It also comes in purple, white and white with pink. You can get it at Home Depot or Lowes. It stays semi green all year round. They get pretty big and are nice for a ground cover. I have quite a few.
