I have some of this if still looking. Thanks, Melinda

This is a low growing blue phlox that grows in total shade. It is a native. I think you are probably growing a different kind, maybe even dames rocket.. I would be interested in your monkshood and yellow foxglove... My email was not set so I will try to email you directly.

Thanks cyn. The orchard is always pretty with something all season but unfortunately I don't photograph that direction too often because of my neighbor's property. I don't mean to sound awful, but swimming pool, giant play set, rickety deck, all manner of grills and autos just don't make for a nice background in a photo. :) I do have my red fence but it's not quite high enough. These people cut down all the large old pines along the line. Now, this was both a blessing and a curse. Yes, I lost most of my privacy but gained lots of sun so that more vegetation and wild flowers are growing. Soon I hope the scrub trees will help fill in the hedge row again for privacy. Annette, I didn't know you could save seed and have it germinate. Should have thought of that. Maybe I'll try to gather a bunch this year and share.

Woodland phlox, otherwise known as wild sweet william, is phlox divaricata. Paniculata is the tall garden phlox. Woodland phlox cmes in varying shades from blue to pink to white, and hybride with each other easily. There are "cultivated" selections that are sold under different names, which can lead to further confusion--Sweet Perfume is one, a white variety. Blue Moon is another. There are also other species of woodland and prairie phloxes: Phlox maculata is also sometimes referred to as Wild Sweet William but it is a taller plant than the divaricata. Miss Lingard and Rosalind are maculatas cultivars. It is also a native plant. There are also native prairie phloxes. If you google wild phloxes you can get a lot more information.
