Yes, wild rabbits do eat phlox flowers.

Pet rabbits may eat phlox too (it is not listed on Poisonous Plants for Rabbits -- see link below), but I can't find a source that recommends it. Many flowers are safe for rabbits as treats.

If a certain plant or food isn't widely recommended, you might want to avoid it because "better safe than sorry." But, if you do want to try it on your rabbit, always start small: a single bite only. Give the rabbit a day or two and watch for signs of ill-health. Be prepared to bring the rabbit to a vet if necessary. (See the related questions below for info about rabbit illness and vets.) If the bunny is fine, then you can try a slightly bigger portion next time. Again, watch for signs of ill-health. Proceed in this careful fashion, and never give lots of it at once.
