Phlox cuspidata, the pointed phlox, is a species of flowering plant in the family Polemoniaceae, native to the US states of Oklahoma, Texas, and Louisiana.[1][2] An annual reaching 25 cm (10 in), its hybridization dynamics with and partial reproductive isolation from Phlox drummondii are the subject of scientific inquiry.[2][3]
