Phlox (pronounced "flocks") is a genus of 67 species of annual or perennial flowering plants that flower in early spring. They are native mainly to temperate North America, with a few species in northeastern Asia.

Phlox range in color from pale blue to bright red to white. Some species such as Phlox glaberrima (Smooth Phlox) grow to 1.5 m tall, while others, such as Phlox stolonifera (Creeping Phlox), form low mats only a few centimetres in height.

Phlox is best grown in well-drained soil, exposed to partial shade to partial sun.
