Prairie Phlox
Phlox pilosa
Central Illinois, Tazewell County
Prairie Phlox are blooming on the flood plain. We weren't seeing these a couple years ago, but clearing out some of the underbrush allowed their reappearance.
From the Illinois Wildflowers site: "Range & Habitat: Prairie Phlox occurs occasionally in most of Illinois, but is uncommon or absent in west central and southeastern Illinois (see Distribution Map). At high quality sites, it may be locally common. Habitats include moist to mesic black soil prairies, rocky open forests, Bur Oak savannas, sandy Black Oak savannas, limestone glades, thickets, abandoned fields, and prairie remnants along railroads. Prairie Phlox appears to benefit from the removal of excess debris by wildfires occurring during early spring or the fall. "
When native prairie in the Prairie Pothole Region is plowed, you will often find piles of rocks that were uncovered by the plowing process. These fields are often referred to as "Prairie Graveyards" as the uncovered rocks resemble tombstones that symbolize the demise of the former grasslands.

We grew a few of this oddity and decided this morning that we would try them again next year. They don't mind being a bit dry and like the heat. Very compact so don't flop over....what's not to like!
