I would plant the phlox first, then spread the rock around it. Good luck!

So you are saying if I take and spread the white rock out over the whole spot the phlox will spread out over them and I can also take and plant more phlox within and around the rocks and they also will spread?

I am very new to gardening and like to learn as much as I can. If there was a way I would send you a picture of what I do having growing so far but I do not know how.

Thanks again for your quick response!

Hi Judy, your garden sounds lovely! You should be fine with some decorative rocks and the phlox. Many people plant phlox in a rock garden. Ours grow like weeds, often spilling over rock edging into the walkways. In fact, I have some that are ni fact growing IN the walkways. If I think of it later today I’ll snap a picture of them to show you. The ones growing among the decorative rocks in my garden paths did so on their own, so I really do think you will be fine with your idea. Share a picture when it’s done! 🙂
